    Polynomial question

    When a polynomial is divided by (x-3)(2x+1), the remainder is (3x-1) Find the remainder when P(x) is divided by (2x+1) does anyone know how to solve this? I tried p(-1/2) = 0 + 3*(-1/2) -1 = -5/2 but that's not the right answer

    Polynomials : sum of 2 roots = 0

    Hi all, I'm having trouble with this polynomial question: After I write out all the root-coefficient relationships I'm stuck. Can someone please show me how to solve the question using only root-coefficient relationships (without doing long division or "inspection") Thanks :)
