Question

Cam wrote the remainder incorrectly.

Answer 1

Answer:

Cam did not use a zero place holder for the x^3 term.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment for the correct solution of this problem.

To solve by synthetic division method first of all we set up coefficients of dividend in a row and divisor goes outside of the box. When we write out the dividend we should make sure that we write it in descending powers. If some term is missing we should insert 0's for those terms.

We can see that Cam forgot to add a zero place holder for the x^3 term. In order to get correct answer he should have used a zero place holder for x^3 term.

Therefore, second option is the correct choice.
