Can someone please help me with this question? Use synthetic division! Create your own third degree polynomial that when divided by x + 2 has a remainder of –4.

Will this one work? x^3+2x^2-4? if it will can someone please work it out? i worked it out and everything but i dont know how to word it for the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dividend=divisor *quotient + remainder third degree polynomial=(x + 2 ) *quotient+–4. as we need to get a hird degree polynomia quotient can be in terms of x^2 exapmle is (x + 2 ) *x^2–4. x^3+2x^2–4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ur ans is crrct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would you write it as an answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because the last four numbers i got was 1 0 0 -4 but you can't write it as x^2+0x+0-4/x+2 can you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dividend=divisor *quotient + remainder is the formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As an answer to the question or to the division?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help me with this one? Let f(x) = x4 – 8x3 + 16x2 – 19 and g(x) = x – 5. Find f(x) over g(x) Answer to the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like the final answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you would put x^2 -4/x+2; you don't need to put the ones that are zero. And the x+2 is just under the 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would it be wrong if i did?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, but it isn't necessary

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you!
