(In short, you'll need most of the major concepts of this chapter.) Since the graph of \(p\) touches the \(x\)-axis at \(\left(\frac{1}{3}, 0\right)\), we know \(x=\frac{1}{3}\) is a zero of eve…

We can now use polynomial division to evaluate polynomials using the Remainder Theorem. If the polynomial is divided by \(x–k\), the remainder may be found quickly by evaluating the polynomial function at \(k\), that is, \(f(k)\).
