Detailed Solution

The given polynomials are p(x)   and g x = x+3 .  
We know by the Remainder theorem that, if a linear polynomial g(x)= xk   divides a polynomial p(x)   of degree one or greater than one, then the remainder will be equal to p(k).  
Equate  x+3 =0.   x=3   Therefore, on dividing p(x)   by g(x)=(x+3),   the remainder will be equal to p 3 .   Thus, if the polynomial p(x)   is divided by Question Image then the remainder will be p 3 .  
Hence, option (3) is correct.
