Question

1. Gerald is testing to see if a possible rational root is an actual rational root of a polynomial. He uses synthetic division to determine the value of the remainder. Whichtheorem is he using to test the value?A. The Remainder TheoremB. The Factor TheoremC. Linear Factorization TheoremD. The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra

Answer 1

If Gerald is testing using synthetic division, he is using Remainder theorem because if the polynomial f(x) is divided by x-c, then the remainder is f(c)
