The remainder, R(3) = 18
Explanations:The given function is:
[tex]f(x)=x^2\text{ + 4x - 3}[/tex]According to the remainder theorem, the remainder when the function f(x) is divided x-3 is gotten by substituting x = 3 into f(x)
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(3)=R(3)=3^2+4(3)-3 \\ f(3)\text{ = R(3) = 9 + 12 - 3} \\ f(3)\text{ = R(3) = 18} \end{gathered}[/tex]The remainder = 18
