Answer:q = - 9 and r = - 10

Explanation:

since g(x) is divided by (x - 1) with remainder - 12, then (1) = 4(1)³ + q(1)² + r + 3 = - 12, that is 4 + q + r + 3 = - 12

q + r + 7 = - 12 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

q + r = - 19 → (1)

Since (x - 3) is a factor of g(x), then

g(3) = 4(3)³ + q(3)² + 3r + 3 = 0, that is

108 + 9q + 3r + 3 = 0

9q + 3r + 111 = 0 ( subtract 111 from both sides )

9q + 3r = - 111 → (2)

The 2 equations to be solved simultaneously are (1) and (2)

Multiply (1) by - 3

- 3q - 3r = 57 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate r

6q = - 54 ( divide both sides by 6 )

q = - 9

Substitute q = - 9 into (1)

- 9 + r = - 19 ( add 9 to both sides )

r = - 10

Hope the helps!!! ❤️
