For the function f(x) = x³ − 6x² + ax + b, it is given f(1) = f(3) = 0. The values of a and b are:

  • A. a = 11, b = −6
  • B. a = −11, b = 6
  • C. a = 6, b = −11
  • D. a = −6, b = 11

Answer: A) a = 11, b = −6

Explanation: f(1) = 1 − 6 + a + b = 0 → a + b = 5. f(3) = 27 − 54 + 3a + b = 0 → 3a + b = 27. Solving: 2a = 22 → a = 11, b = −6.
