What is the factor theorem?What is a zero of a polynomial function?
![Page 2: 6.5 The Remainder and Factor Theorems p. 352 How do you divide polynomials? What is the remainder theorem? What is the difference between synthetic substitution](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082713/56649ef45503460f94c06a3c/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
When you divide a Polynomial f(x) by a divisor d(x), you get a quotient polynomial q(x) with a remainder r(x) written:
f(x) = q(x) + r(x)d(x) d(x)

The degree of the remainder must be less than the degree of the divisor!

Polynomial Long Division:
You write the division problem in the same format you would use for numbers. If a term is missing in standard form …fill it in with a 0 coefficient.
Example: 2x4 + 3x3 + 5x – 1 = x2 – 2x + 2

Now you try one!
y4 + 2y2 – y + 5 =y2 – y + 1
Answer: y2 + y + 2 + 3 y2 – y + 1

Remainder Theorem:
If a polynomial f(x) is divisible by (x – k), then the remainder is r = f(k).
Now you will use synthetic division (like synthetic substitution)
f(x)= 3x3 – 2x2 + 2x – 5 Divide by x - 2
![Page 10: 6.5 The Remainder and Factor Theorems p. 352 How do you divide polynomials? What is the remainder theorem? What is the difference between synthetic substitution](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082713/56649ef45503460f94c06a3c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
f(x)= 3x3 – 2x2 + 2x – 5 Divide by x - 2 Long division results in ?...... 3x2 + 4x + 10 + 15

Factor Theorem:
A polynomial f(x) has factor x-k if f(k)=0
note that k is a ZERO of the function because f(k)=0
![Page 14: 6.5 The Remainder and Factor Theorems p. 352 How do you divide polynomials? What is the remainder theorem? What is the difference between synthetic substitution](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082713/56649ef45503460f94c06a3c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Factoring a polynomial
Factor f(x) = 2x3 + 11x2 + 18x + 9 Given f(-3)=0
Since f(-3)=0 x-(-3) or x+3 is a factor So use synthetic division to find the
others!!

So…. 2x3 + 11x2 + 18x + 9 factors to:
Now keep factoring-- gives you:
(x+3)(2x+3)(x+1)

Your turn!
Factor f(x)= 3x3 + 13x2 + 2x -8 given f(-4)=0
(x + 1)(3x – 2)(x + 4)

Finding the zeros of a polynomial function f(x) = x3 – 2x2 – 9x +18. One zero of f(x) is x=2 Find the others! Use synthetic div. to reduce the degree
of the polynomial function and factor completely.
(x-2)(x2-9) = (x-2)(x+3)(x-3) Therefore, the zeros are x=2,3,-3!!!

Your turn!
f(x) = x3 + 6x2 + 3x -10 X=-5 is one zero, find the others!
The zeros are x=2,-1,-5 Because the factors are (x-2)(x+1)(x+5)

How do you divide polynomials?
By long division What is the remainder theorem?
If a polynomial f(x) is divisible by (x – k), then the remainder is r = f(k).
What is the difference between synthetic substitution and synthetic division?
It is the same thing What is the factor theorem?
If there is no remainder, it is a factor. What is a zero of a polynomial function?
One of the answers
