Q. The form of your answer should either be p(x) or p(x)+x−5k where p(x) is a polynomial and k is an integer. x−52x3−11x2+25
Check Factor Using Synthetic Division: Step 1: Check if x−5 is a factor of the numerator 2x3−11x2+25 using synthetic division.Divide 2x3−11x2+25 by x−5:- Coefficients of the polynomial: 2, −11, 0, 25- Value for synthetic division: 5- Perform synthetic division:2 | 2x3−11x2+250 | 2x3−11x2+251 | 25 -------------------------2 | 2x3−11x2+254 | 2x3−11x2+251 | 0The remainder is 0, indicating x−5 is a factor.
Write Quotient as Polynomial: Step 2: Write the quotient from the synthetic division as a polynomial.The quotient is 2x2−x−5.
Simplify Expression: Step 3: Since the remainder is 0, the expression simplifies to the quotient.The simplified form is 2x2−x−5.
