Create your own division of polynomials problem. Demonstrate how this problem would be solved using both long division and synthetic division.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just uh... come up with 2 different random polynomials. It's probably a good idea to make the divisor have a lower degree. Also, don't make them really long or have huge numbers because you have to solve this thing, and you don't want to give yourself a super tough problem, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so could i use something like 4x^3+3x^3+2x^2+4 for synethic division?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There's one polynomial. Division needs two. So what is your second polynomial? And what kind of polynomials am I allowed to use synthetic for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean by 2? i dont think it matters

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Division need two polynomials. Whenever you're dividing, you need two things. Liiiike, 10 divided by 5. ooor 15 divided by 3. 50 divided by 10. And so on. It wouldn't make sense to have a division problem that just said "Divide 100." You would ask, "by what?"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont really get what your saying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay let me ask some dumb questions. Try to answer them. What is 15 divided by 3? What is 15 divided by 5? What is 15 divided?
