Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The division problem given to us is
.
To perform the synthetic division, we write out the coefficient of the polynomial. We set the linear factor to zero and solve for x, this becomes our divisor. That is
.
We carry out the synthetic division as shown in the attachment.
The result of the synthetic division is 4 -27 167 -996
The first three terms are the coefficients of the quotient and the last term is the remainder.
Therefore the quotient is
and the remainder is
.
The dividend, the quotient and the divisor are written as

The correct answer is A
12 vertices are on the polyhedron
<u> b</u> = 1.5
-3
Cross Multiply
b = - 3 * ( 1.5 )
b = - 4.5
The estimate of the mean is reasonable beauase the median of the data is 26 lbs.
