this term 2x is not a polynomial. this term is a monomial. since only one term was listed it can not be a polynomial. A polynomial is like four or more terms. a trinomial is three terms and a binomial is two terms.

What is the Best Describes The Relationship Between (x - 2) And The Polynomial 2x3 plus X2 - 3?

To determine the relationship between ( (x - 2) ) and the polynomial ( 2x^3 + x^2 - 3 ), we can perform polynomial division. If ( (x - 2) ) divides the polynomial evenly, then ( (x - 2) ) is a factor of the polynomial. Alternatively, we can evaluate the polynomial at ( x = 2 ); if the result is zero, it confirms that ( (x - 2) ) is a factor. In this case, substituting ( x = 2 ) gives ( 2(2)^3 + (2)^2 - 3 = 16 + 4 - 3 = 17 ), indicating that ( (x - 2) ) is not a factor of the polynomial.


What is the remainder when 2 is synthetically divided into the polynomial?

To find the remainder when a polynomial is divided by (x - 2) using synthetic division, we substitute (2) into the polynomial. The remainder is the value of the polynomial evaluated at (x = 2). If you provide the specific polynomial, I can calculate the remainder for you.


If the factors of a polynomial are x plus 2 and x plus 6 what values of x make that polynomial 0?

-2 and -6


What is the square root of a polynomial?

The square root of a polynomial is another polynomial that, when multiplied by itself, yields the original polynomial. Not all polynomials have a square root that is also a polynomial; for example, the polynomial (x^2 + 1) does not have a polynomial square root in the real number system. However, some polynomials, like (x^2 - 4), have polynomial square roots, which in this case would be (x - 2) and (x + 2). Finding the square root of a polynomial can involve techniques such as factoring or using the quadratic formula for quadratic polynomials.


When this polynomial is simplified what is the coefficient of x2?

To determine the coefficient of ( x^2 ) in a polynomial, you need to simplify the polynomial by combining like terms. Look for all terms that contain ( x^2 ) and sum their coefficients. If you provide the specific polynomial, I can help you find the coefficient of ( x^2 ).
