Solution

The synthetic division problem is not fully specified in your question. However, I can show you how to solve a synthetic division problem using an example.

Let's say we want to divide the polynomial 12x^2 - 23x - 3 by x + 3. Here are the steps:

  1. Write down the coefficients of the polynomial you're dividing (the dividend). In this case, the coefficients are 12, -23, and -3.

  2. Write down the number you're dividing by, with the sign flipped. In this case, we're dividing by x + 3, so we write down -3.

  3. Draw a line, and write the first coefficient (12) underneath it.

  4. Multiply the number you just wrote down by the number you're dividing by (-3), and write the result under the next coefficient (-23). So, 12 * -3 = -36.

  5. Add the numbers in this column (-23 + -36 = -59), and write the result underneath the line.

  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the rest of the coefficients. So

This problem has been solved
