Questions and Answers

What is the formula for performing long division of polynomials?

  • a(x) = b(x) × Q(x) - R(x)
  • a(x) = b(x) × R(x) + Q(x)
  • a(x) = b(x) × Q(x) + R(x) (correct)
  • a(x) = b(x) × R(x) - Q(x)

What is the first step in performing synthetic division?

  • Use the opposite sign of the root of the dividend polynomial.
