Answer 1

Create a quadratic polynomial function f(x) and a linear binomial in the form (x − a).

Part 1. Show all work using long division to divide your polynomial by the binomial.

Part 2. Show all work to evaluate f(a) using the function you created.

Part 3. Use complete sentences to explain how the remainder theorem is used to determine whether your linear binomial is a factor of your polynomial function

Answer 3

do you have any work done so far?

Answer 4

No, I haven't.... sorry

Answer 5

"Create a quadratic polynomial function"

so what is one quadratic that comes to mind?

Answer 6

f(x)=b(x^2)+ax+c

Answer 7

you might be thinking of ax^2 + bx + c

Answer 8

pick 3 numbers for a,b,c

Answer 9

sorry :D

Answer 10

2 4 8

Answer 11

so that quadratic would be 2x^2 + 4x + 8

Answer 12

"and a linear binomial in the form (x - a)."

so pick another value

Answer 13

9

Answer 14

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 15

so we have

2x^2+4x+8 for the quadratic

and

x-9 for the linear binomial

Answer 16

so we have this long division problem



agreed?
