Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 0

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( x^2-7 x+12 = (x-3)(x-4) \) \( P(3) = (3)^4 - 11(3)^3 + 44(3)^2 - 76(3) + 48 = 81 - 297 + 396 - 228 + 48 = 0 \) \( P(4) = (4)^4 - 11(4)^3 + 44(4)^2 - 76(4) + 48 = 256 - 704 + 704 - 304 + 48 = 0 \) The remainder is \(0\).
