Use Synthetic Division to Divide F(x) by X - K $$f ( x ) = 3 x ^ { 3 } - x ^ { 2 } + 2 x + 5 ; k = - 1$$

question 197

Multiple Choice

Use synthetic division to divide f(x) by x - k for the given value of k. Then express f(x) in the form f(x) = (x - k) q(x) + r for
the given value of k.
- $$f ( x ) = 3 x ^ { 3 } - x ^ { 2 } + 2 x + 5 ; k = - 1$$

• A) \(f ( x ) = ( x + 1 ) \left( 3 x ^ { 2 } + 2 x \right) + 5\)
• B) \(f ( x ) = ( x - 1 ) \left( 3 x ^ { 2 } + 2 x \right) + 5\)
• C) \(f ( x ) = ( x + 1 ) \left( 3 x ^ { 2 } - 4 x + 2 \right) + 7\)
• D) \(f ( x ) = ( x + 1 ) \left( 3 x ^ { 2 } - 4 x + 6 \right) - 1\)
