The answer is choice D because the expression 6x^3+x^2-3 is the same as 6x^3+1x^2+0x+(-3). Notice the coefficients are 6, 1, 0, -3
The expression x-7 is in the form x-k where k = 7. This is the test root which is placed outside of the synthetic division bar as shown in choice D.
2/3 x4 = 8/12
therefore,
They will need 8/12 cup oil
let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then subtract, bearing in mind that the LCD of 4 and 2 is 4.
