1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the remainder when the polynomial f(x)=x4+3x34x2+3x+6f(x) = x^4 + 3x^3 - 4x^2 + 3x + 6 is divided by (x2)(x-2).

2. Solution Steps

We can use the Remainder Theorem, which states that if we divide a polynomial f(x)f(x) by (xc)(x-c), then the remainder is f(c)f(c). In this case, we are dividing by (x2)(x-2), so c=2c=2. We need to find f(2)f(2).
f(x)=x4+3x34x2+3x+6f(x) = x^4 + 3x^3 - 4x^2 + 3x + 6
f(2)=(2)4+3(2)34(2)2+3(2)+6f(2) = (2)^4 + 3(2)^3 - 4(2)^2 + 3(2) + 6
f(2)=16+3(8)4(4)+6+6f(2) = 16 + 3(8) - 4(4) + 6 + 6
f(2)=16+2416+6+6f(2) = 16 + 24 - 16 + 6 + 6
f(2)=4016+12f(2) = 40 - 16 + 12
f(2)=24+12f(2) = 24 + 12
f(2)=36f(2) = 36

3. Final Answer

The remainder is 36.
