What should be the order of the polynomial coefficients of the dividend.
(3x - 4x3+ 6x4 + 1) / (x + 3)
3 0 -4 6 1
6 -4 3 1 0
6 -4 0 3 1
-6 4 0 -3 -1
What is the proper way to write the answer for the following problem? If the dividend was a quartic.
2x3-x2-25x+12
2x4-x3-25x2-12x+0
2x3-x2-25x-12
2x4-x3-25x2-12x-0
Cam divided (x4 + 3x2 - 4x - 2) by factor of (x-2) using synthetic division. His work is shown above. Which best describes his mistake?
Cam wrote the remainder incorrectly.
Cam did not use a zero place holder for the x3 term.
Cam added instead of subtracting the rows.
Cam should have used -2 as his division since the factor was x-2.
What would be the coefficients we use to solve:
x+1(5x7+3x6−9x4+4x3+2x−37)
5, 3,−9, 4, 2,−37
5, 3, 0,−9, 4, 0, 2,−37
5, 3, 0,−9, 4, 2,−37
5, 3, 0,−9, 4, 2
