Divide -3x^3-2x^2-x-2 by x-2

Let's do this by Briot-Ruffini


First: Find the monomial root


x - 2 = 0

x = 2


Second: Allign this root with all the other coeficients from equation

Equation = -3x³ - 2x² - x - 2

Coeficients = -3, -2, -1, -2

2 | -3 -2 -1 -2


Copy the first coeficient


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3


Multiply him by the root and sum with the next coeficient


2.(-3) = -6

-6 + (-2) = -8


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3 -8


Do the same


2.(-8) = -16

-16 + (-1) = -17


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3 -8 -17


The same,


2.(-17) = -34

-34 + (-2) = -36


2 | -3 -2 -1 -2

-3 -8 -17 -36


Now you just need to put the "x" after all these numbers with one exponent less, see


2 | -3x³ - 2x² - 1x - 2

-3x² - 8x - 17 -36


You may be asking what exponent -36 should be, and I say:


None or the monomial. He's like the rest of this division, so you can say:


(-3x³ - 2x² - x - 2)/(x - 2) = -3x² - 8x - 17 with rest -36 or you can say:

(-3x³ - 2x² - x - 2)/(x - 2) = -3x² - 8x - 17 - 36/(x - 2)


Just divide the rest by the monomial.

Answer this question Angie and her friends are 3/4 of a pizza.Her brother joe ate 2/3 of what was left.How much did joe eat?
Alja [10]
If Angie and her friends ate 3/4 of a pizza, that means that 1/4 is left.
Joe ate 2/3 of 1/4 of a pizza. To find out how much he ate, multiply 1/4 by 2/3.

\frac{1}{4}* \frac{2}{3}= \frac{2}{12} because you multiply fractions straight across.

Your answer is 2/12 or <em>1/6 of the pizza</em>

A wooden board 100 centimeters long is cut into two pieces. One piece is 16 centimeters longer than the other. What are the leng
Bezzdna [24]

x = the length of one piece

y = the length of the other piece


the total length is 100 cm this means 


x + y = 100


one piece is 16 inches longer than the other


first we need to convert inches to cm: 


1 in = 2.54 cm

16 in = 2.54*16 = 40.64


now we can write


x = y + 40.64


by solving the system of equations


x + y = 100

x = y + 40.64


we find


x = 70.32 cm


y = 29.68 cm


the lengths of the two pieces are 70.32 cm and 29.68 cm.
