Answer:


remainder=2802

Explanation:

Remainder Theorem: When a polynomial
f(x) is divided by
(x-a) the remainder will be
f(a)


Here \ \ f(x)=x^3+6x^2-20x+450


It\ is\ divided\ by\ (x-12)


Then\ remainder =f(12)\\\\remainder=(12)^3+6(12)^2-20*12+450\\\\remainder=1728+6*144-240+450\\\\remainder=1728+864-240+450\\\\remainder=3042-240\\\\remainder=2802
