C Correct answer
Explanation

Let the no. be $xyz$ sum of digit is $(x+y+z)$ 

as $xyz=100x+10y+z$
then $xyz-(x+y+z)=99x+9y$  
$\therefore $ $\boxed{Always\, divisible\, by\, 9}$

D Correct answer
Explanation
$ \left( \sum _{n=0}^N x^{n} \right) = \left ( \dfrac{x^{N+1}-1}{x-1} \right ) $

$ \Rightarrow Dividend = \left ( \dfrac{x^{24}-1}{x^{2}-1} \right ) $
$ Divisor = \left ( \dfrac{x^{12}-1}{x-1} \right ) $

Now,
$ \left ( \dfrac{x^{24}-1}{x^{2}-1} \right )  = \left ( \dfrac{x^{12}-1}{x-1} \right ) \left ( \dfrac{x^{12}-1+2}{x+1} \right ) = \left ( \dfrac{\left ( x^{12}-1 \right )^{2}}{x^{2}-1} \right ) + 2\left ( \dfrac{x^{12}-1}{x^{2}-1} \right ) $

$ \Rightarrow Remainder = 2\left ( 1+x^{2}+x^{4}...+x^{10} \right ) $

If the polynomial $x^{19}+x^{17}+x^{13}+x^{11}+x^7+x^5+x^3$ is divided by $(x^2+1)$, then the remainder is:

  1. $1$
  2. $x^2+4$
  3. $-x$
  4. $x$

C Correct answer
Explanation

Divide the polynomial by x^2+1 by substituting x^2 = -1. The terms become powers of (-1), simplifying to -x.
