10 Questions
What does the sum of the quotients give us in polynomial division by a linear polynomial?
The whole dividend
What does the equation $p(x) = g(x)q(x) + r(x)$ represent?
Division Algorithm
What characterizes the remainder in polynomial division according to the text?
Degree less than divisor
In polynomial division, what does replacing $x$ by a certain value help determine?
Remainder
What does the Remainder Theorem state?
$p(x)$ divided by $g(x)$ gives $q(x)$ as quotient and $r(x)$ as remainder
When dividing $3x^4 - 4x^3 - 3x - 1$ by $x - 1$, what will be the remainder?
$-1$
What is the link between the remainder in polynomial division and the value of the polynomial at a certain point?
They are equal
What does the proof of Remainder Theorem involve according to the text?
Long division of polynomials
$p(-1)$ for $p(x) = 3x^2 + x - 1$ gives what information about polynomial division?
$p(-1)$ equals $-1$, which is the remainder after division by $x + 1$
What is the relationship between degree of remainder and degree of divisor in polynomial division?
The degree of remainder is less than degree of divisor.
