Subtract 8u from both sides

$-3u\leq -21$

Divide by -3 on both sides

Divide x^4+3x^3-2x^2+4 by x-2 what is the correct synthetic division and quotinent

frez [133]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct divisor is 2. You change the sign of the real number without a variable when that real number is the divisor.

So - 2 becomes 2 and C and D are both incorrect.

The 0 comes between - 2 and 4 because the x term is 0x. (there isn't one).

That makes B wrong.

The answer is A
