Learning Task 2.
A. Use the Remainder Theorem to find the remainder R in each of the
Then check using synthetic division.
1. (x - x3 + 2) = (x + 2)
2.
(x3 - 2x2 + x + 6) = (x - 3)
3. (x - 3x3 + 4x2 - 6x + 4) = (x - 2)
4.
(x - 16x3 + 18x2 - 128) + (x + 2)
5.
(3x2 + 5x3 - 8) = (x - 4)
B. Use the Factor Theorem to determine whether or not the first polynomial is a
factor of the second.
1. x - 1; x2 + 2x + 5
2. x + 1; X3 - X-2
3. x - 4; 2x3 - 9x2 + 9x - 20
4. a - 1; a3 - 2a2 + a - 2
5. y + 3; 2y3 + y2 - 13y +6
