Step 1
Let's set up the synthetic division table: ``` -2 | 1 -3 2 1 | -2 10 -24 ---------------- 1 -5 12 -23 ``` So, P(-2) = -23. Now, we are given that P(x) can be written as: P(x) = (x + 2)Q(x) + r Since we know P(-2) = -23, Show more…

Let p(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 - 2x + 1. p(-2) can be computed via synthetic division by filling in for the letters a through g in the table 1 -3 -2 1 b d f a c e g where a, b, c, d, e, f, g. Moreover, p(-2) = and p(x) can be written as p(x) = (x + 2)q(x) + r where q(x) = is a quadratic polynomial and r = is a real number.

Let p(x) = x^3 - x^2 + 2x - 5. p(-3) can be computed via synthetic division by filling in for the letters a through g in the table where Moreover, p(-3) = and p(x) can be written as p(x) = (x + 3)q(x) + r where q(x) = is a quadratic polynomial and r = is a real number.

Two polynomials $P$ and $D$ are given. Use either synthetic or long division to divide $P(x)$ by $D(x),$ and express $P$ in the form $P(x)=D(x) \cdot Q(x)+R(x)$. $$P(x)=2 x^{3}-3 x^{2}-2 x, \quad D(x)=2 x-3$$
