Answer:
(b) -36
Step-by-step explanation:
Synthetic division is often performed using a table of the kind shown in the attachment. The coefficients of f(x) are placed across the top, and the x-value to be evaluated is placed at the left. The rule for finding table entries is shown. (The first (left-most) number at the bottom is the leading coefficient of the polynomial.)
This table shows the remainder, which is f(-2), is -36.

The equation itself can be rewritten in "Horner form" to facilitate evaluation.
f(x) = (((-x +2)x -1)x +4)x +8
In this form, substituting for x and doing the evaluation is easier for mental arithmetic. You will notice that the contents of parentheses at each level match the bottom line of the synthetic division table.
f(-2) = (((-(-2) +2)(-2) -1)(-2) +4)(-2) +8
= (((4)(-2) -1)(-2) +4)(-2) +8
= ((-9)(-2) +4)(-2) +8
= (22)(-2) +8
= -36
f(-2) = -36 . . . . remainder from synthetic substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
Coordinates of A≡(−1,3)
Coordinates of B≡(7,9)
Coordinates of C≡(15,-3)
The median through the vertex C will meet at the mid point of AB.
Coordinate of mid-point on AB=[(-1+7)/2 , (3+9)/2]= (3,6)
Now,
Length of median through vertex C= Distance between (15,-3) and (3,6)
Therefore,
Length of median = √(3-15)²+(6-(-3))²=√144+81=15unit
Hence the length of median through the vertx C is 15 units.
