What is the remainder of (x3 – 6x – 9x + 3) ÷ (x - 3) A. -51 B. -51 x - 3 C. -17 x D. -17 x - 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Familiar with Synthetic Division or Long Division?

OpenStudy (explainitlikeimfive):

Long

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that x^3-6x^2-9x+3 ?

OpenStudy (explainitlikeimfive):

@chris00 Yes

OpenStudy (explainitlikeimfive):

Wait

OpenStudy (explainitlikeimfive):

The only exponent is x^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so x^3-15x+3

OpenStudy (explainitlikeimfive):

So its (x^3 – 6x – 9x + 3) ÷ (x - 3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we can simplify this to so x^3-15x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (explainitlikeimfive):

OK

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets set it up like this first
