<span>1. </span><span>Gaetano spent 37.80 dollars
including the tax for a pair of jeans
=> the tax is 8%, how much is the original cost of a pair of jeans?
=> 8% = 8/100
=> .08
Now, multiply .08 by 37.80 to get the 8% of 37.80
=> 37.80 x .08
=> 3.024 – this is the tax of a pair of jeans.
now, let’s subtract 3.024 by 37.80 to get the actual price of a pair of jeans.
=> 37.80 – 3.024
=> 34.776 – the original price of a pair of jeans without tax.

Step-by-step explanation:
Whether we divide using long division or using synthetic division, the rule is the same: If, after division, there is no remainder (i. e., the remainder is zero), the divisor binomial is a factor or the associated root is indeed a root/zero/solution.
Divide 5x³+8x²-7x-6 by (x+2) using synthetic division. Use the divisor -2 (which comes from letting x+2 = 0):
--------------------------
-2 / 5 8 -7 -6
-10 4 6
------------------------------
5 -2 -3 0 Since the remainder here is 0, we know that
-2 is a root of 5x³+8x²-7x-6 and that (x+2) is
a factor of 5x³+8x²-7x-6.
Now check out the possibility that (x+1) is a factor of 5x^3 + 8x^2 - 7x - 6:
Use -1 as the divisor in synthetic division:
--------------------------
-1 / 5 8 -7 -6
-5 -3 10
------------------------------
5 3 -10 4
Since there is a non-zero remainder (4), we can conclude that (x + 1) is NOT a factor of the given polynomial expression.
