Use synthetic division to divide 2x^4 – 3x^3 + 2x2 – 8x – 1 by x – 1.
1 answer:
1. controle if no numbers are missing and the numbers are in the right order
2. the formula is x-a so a=1
3. write everything out in the scheme
4. let the first number drop down
5. multiply the answers by a
6. add the number that are under each other
7. repeat 5 and 6 until to you're done
8. write down the equation
9. last number in the scheme is your residue, which means that you write it at the end, outside of the ()

Answer: D) Reflect over x-axis
=======================================================
Explanation:
When we do this type of reflection, a point like (1,2) moves to (1,-2).
As another example, something like (5,-7) moves to (5,7)
The x coordinate stays the same but the y coordinate flips in sign from positive to negative, or vice versa.
We can say that as a general way to represent the transformation. Note how y = f(x), so when we make f(x) negative, then we're really making y negative.
If we apply this transformation to every point on f(x), then it will flip the f(x) curve over the horizontal x axis.
There's an example below in the graph. The point A(2,8) moves to B(2,-8) after applying that reflection rule.
