Polynomial Division

Synthetic division is a method used to divide polynomials efficiently.
The polynomials listed involve various degrees, utilizing different divisors.

Division Problems

A) Dividing (4x^2 + x - 3) by (x - 3) results in a quotient (Q(x)) and a remainder (r(x)).
B) For (x^4 + x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x - 4) divided by (x + 3), compute the quotient and remainder.
C) The polynomial (3x^2 + 4x - x^2 - 2x^2 - 4) is divided by (x + 2), yielding corresponding quotient and remainder.
D) Division of (2x^5 - 2x^3 + 4x^2 - 3) by (x + 1) must also provide results.
E) The expression (-x^4 + 2x^5 - 2x - 3x^2 + 1) divided by (x - 2) will give quotients and remainders.
F) Dividing (-25 - 4x^4 - 3x^2 + 4x) by (x - 4) involves similar calculations.
G) Finally, polynomial (2x^3 + 5x^2 - 4x - 5) divided by (2x + 1) is analyzed.

Decoder Matching

The results of the divisions produce specific remainders.
Remainders can be matched to corresponding terms in the decoder:
- Match the numbers from the decoder with their respective treatment and terms.
Understanding and identifying the remainder can assist in determining the associated term from the decoder table.
