If g(x) = 2x2 + 6x + 5, use synthetic division to find g(-5).
1 answer:
<h3>Answer: 25</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
Check out the image below. I've posted the synthetic division table. The value at the very end of the bottom row is the remainder. By the remainder theorem, this is exactly the value of g(-5).
Recall the remainder theorem says: If you divide p(x) by (x-k), then the remainder is p(k). In this case, k = -5 is our test root which is the value placed in the box on the left.
As a way to check the answer, we can say
g(x) = 2x^2 + 6x + 5
g(-5) = 2(-5)^2 + 6(-5) + 5
g(-5) = 25
So the answer is confirmed.

Given a line AB with Point C outside it.
Mark point D on the line AB. Join CD
With D as center, and any radius, draw an arc intersecting AB at E, and CD at F.
With C as center, and same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting CD at G.
Open a compass to length EF
Now,with G as center, and compass opened the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the previous arc at H.
Draw a line m passing through C and H.
Thus m is the line parallel to AB, and passing through point C
∴m∣∣AB
