Question

Given a polynomial dividend of 2x3 + x2 + x – 8 and binomial divisor of x– 2, what are the terms of the quotient and the remainder?
Select one:
a. 2x2 – 3x + 7; 22
b. 2x2 – 3x + 7; –22
c. 2x2 + 3x + 7; 22
d. 2x2 + 3x + 7; –22

Answer 1

Here is a nice math property:

If f(x) is divided by (x-a)
Then f(a) gives its remainder.

You can find out the quotient by long division. Can you do that? :)

Answer 2

yes one sec

Answer 3

i got 14 as the remainder

Answer 4

i think im doing it wrong

Answer 5

and i got 2x^2+5x+11 for the quottient
