Question

Create your own third degree polynomial that when divided by x + 2 has a remainder of –4.

Answer 1

start with any quadratic, multiply by \(x+2\) and subtract 4 from the result

Answer 2

make it easy
\[(x^2+x+1)(x+2)-4\] would work. you still have to do the algebra, but that will give you a remainder of -4 when you divide right?
