1. Can synthetic division be used to divide 2x2 + x - 1 by x2 - 1? Answer yes or no and briefly explain why you selected the answer you did.
no. it cannot divide all the way through
2. Use synthetic division to find the quotient and remainder when f(x) = 3x4 + 8x2 - 7x + 4 is divided by x - 1.
3x3+3x2-5x2+7x+3
3. Use synthetic division to find the quotient and remainder when f(x) = x3 + 4x2 - 3x + 1 is divided by x - 1/2.
x2-8x-3
4. Use synthetic division to determine whether x + 1 is a factor of 2x3 - 3x2 + 1. (Answer either "Yes, it is." or "No, it's not.")
yes
5. Given that x = -2 is a zero of f (x) = 2x3 + 3x2 - 5x - 6, use synthetic division to completely factor f.
i dont know how to factor this.
