If (p(x)=4x+7), what is the value of (p(3)-p(1))?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 8
p(3)=4×3+7=19 and p(1)=4×1+7=11. Therefore, p(3)-p(1)=19-11=8. Option 4 is only the coefficient, not the required difference. Exam tip: substitute each given value of x carefully before subtracting the polynomial values.
