Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) P3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

x4+x3+2x2−2x+1x3+x2 =x+2x2−2x+1x3+x2 =x+Ax+Bx2+Cx+1 [let] ⇒2x2−2x+1=Ax(x+1)+B(x+1)+Cx2 By comparing the coefficients of x2,x and constant terms, we get A+C=2, A+B=-2 and B=1 ⇒A=-3,B=1 and C=5 So, A+B+C=3 and P(x)=x So, A+B+C=P(3)
