If \((x \pm h)\) is a factor of a polynomial, then the remainder will be zero. Conversely, if the remainder is zero, then \((x \pm h)\) is a factor. Often ...

The deterministic factorization algorithm for polynomials over finite fields that was recently introduced by the author is based on a new type of linearization of the factorization problem. The main ...

The Passport to Advanced Math subsection of the SAT, which includes 16 questions out of 58 total, or 28 percent, is perhaps the most complex part of the math section. While this can be intimidating to ...

Here's how the process of synthetic division works, step-by-step. Divide \(3{x^3} - 4x + 5\) by \((x + 2)\) and state the quotient and remainder. First, make sure the polynomial is listed in order of ...
