This one im confused

Nnesha (nnesha):

synthetic division or long ? which one is easy ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

synthetic division i dont know that one

Nnesha (nnesha):

which one you don't know ? long division ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know long division im a bit rusty at it but i know it but ive never heard of synthetic division

Nnesha (nnesha):

alright lets do the synthetic division today it's easy |dw:1448321141699:dw| first just write the coefficients of the polynomial and then set the divisor equal to zero \[\rm x+2=0\] solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2?

Nnesha (nnesha):

right i would put that in the box |dw:1448321317664:dw| bring the leading coefficient down and then multiply by -2
