Answer the following and justify:
- (i)Can x^2 - 1 be the quotient on division of x^6 + 2x^3 + x - 1 by a polynomial in x of degree 5?
- (ii)What will the quotient and remainder be on division of ax^2 + bx + c by px^3 + qx^2 + rx + s, p not equal to 0?
- (iii)If on division of a polynomial p(x) by a polynomial g(x), the quotient is zero, what is the relation between the degrees of p(x) and g(x)?
- (iv)If on division of a non-zero polynomial p(x) by a polynomial g(x), the remainder is zero, what is the relation between the degrees of p(x) and g(x)?
- (v)Can the quadratic polynomial x^2 + kx + k have equal zeroes for some odd integer k > 1?
