Philoid · Accepted Answer

We have,

p (x) = x³ – ax² + 6x - a

(x – a) is divided by p (x)

∴ p (a) = (a)³ – a (a)² + 6 (a) - a

= a³ – a³ + 6a - a

= 5a

Hence, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true also Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)

∴ Option A is correct

Assertion (A)	Reason (R)
If is divided by (x – a), then the remainder is 5a.	If p(x) is divided by (x – a), then the remainder is p(a).
