Use synthetic division to verify that x 4 is a zero of gx
Use synthetic division to verify that x = -4 is a zero of g(x) = 3x^3 + 11x^2 - 2x + 8. Determine a polynomial function of degree 3 with zeros x = -2, 8, 10.
Solution
4)
x=-4 is zero that means x+4 is a factor
so dividing g(x) by x+4 should not give any remainder
x+4 ) 3x^3 +11x^2 -2x + 8 (3x^2 – x +2
3x^3+12x^2
- - - - - - - -- -- -- - -
-x^2 -2x +8
-x^2 -4x
- - - - -- - -
2x + 8
2x + 8
0
Since remainder is 0
X=-4 IS zero of g(x)
