Question

-424 +122-72+2

Answer 1

Answer:

The expression "-424 +122-72+2" doesn't seem to have anything to do with the rest of the problem.  The sum of what was written is -372.  There are no unknowns (x's) in this expression, and yet the work shows x's in the analysis.

Step-by-step explanation:

What does "by using

202+1

polynomial long division."  mean??

do the numbers after the x's represent exponents?

e.g.:  "2x + 1) - 4x4 + 12x3 - 7x + 2" is really "2x + 1) - 4x4 + 12x^3 - 7x + 2"
