Divide the following polynomial using synthetic division, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. Write answer in descending powers of x. (x 5 - 8x 3 + 24x 2 + 12x + 40) (x + 4)

In the case of dividing by a linear factor, the synthetic division is a shorthand, or quicker, a technique of polynomial division.

We have a polynomial:

(x⁵ - 8x³ + 24x² + 12x + 40)

Which need to divide by (x + 4)

= (x⁵ - 8x³ + 24x² + 12x + 40) ÷ (x + 4)

The remainder is -136

The answer will be:

[tex]\rm x^4-4x^3+8x^2-8x+44-\dfrac{136}{x+4}[/tex]

Thus, we can divide the polynomial (x⁵ - 8x³ + 24x² + 12x + 40) by (x + 4) using synthetic division.
