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

welshfella · Answer

a quadratic polynomial  would be for example

x^2 - 5x + 4  and a linear binomial  is  x - 4

welshfella · Answer

long division 
the first step is to divide x^2 by x
