Hello,

f(x)=2x^3+4x²-32x+18
f(3)=2*3^3+4*3²-32*3+18=12

Remainder =12

Answer: The remainder will be 12.

Explanation:

Since we have given that


f(x)=(2x^3+4x^2 -32x+18)

And
g(x)=x-3

Now, we need to find the remainder while dividing f(x) by g(x).

So, by using "Remainder theorem" we get our answer.


g(x)=0\\\\x-3=0\\\\x=3

Now, we use x=3 in f(x).


f(3)=2x^3+4x^2-32x+18\\\\f(3)=2(3)^3+4(3)^2-32(3)+18\\\\f(3)=2* 27+4* 9-96+18\\\\f(3)=54+36-96+18\\\\f(3)=12

so, the remainder will be 12.
