Answer:

The answer is 87

Explanation:

f(x) = x² + 14x - 5

To find the reminder when f(x) is divided by x - 5 , substitute the value of x into the above formula

That's

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

So we have

f(5) = 5² + 14(5) - 8

f(5) = 25 + 70 - 8

f(5) = 95 - 8

We have the final answer as

87

Hope this helps you
