Let's dive right into this! Using synthetic division, you can easily divide polynomials, and here's how it works for your polynomial \(x^{4}-3x^{3}+6x^{2}-12x+8\) with the divisor \(x-1\). 1. We set up synthetic division using the root of the divisor, which is 1. 2. Write down the coefficients: 1, -3, 6, -12, 8. 3. Bring down the leading coefficient: 1. 4. Multiply it by the root (1) and add to the next coefficient: \( -3 + 1 = -2 \). 5. Repeat this process: \( -2 \times 1 = -2 \); \( 6 - 2 = 4 \); \( 4 \times 1 = 4 \); \( -12 + 4 = -8 \); \( -8 \times 1 = -8 \); \( 8 - 8 = 0 \). 6. The final coefficients from synthetic division give you the quotient \(x^{3} - 2x^{2} + 4x - 8\) and a remainder of 0. Now, you can express the dividend in factored form as: \[ (x-1)(x^{3} - 2x^{2} + 4x - 8) \] You can factor \(x^{3} - 2x^{2} + 4x - 8\) further. By grouping, you can identify a factor of \((x-2)\) with remainder \(x^{2}+4\). Thus, the factored form is: \[ (x-1)(x-2)(x^{2}+4) \] The zeros can be found from the factors: - From \(x-1 = 0\), \(x = 1\) - From \(x-2 = 0\), \(x = 2\) - From \(x^{2}+4 = 0\), \(x = \pm 2i\) (not real, so we ignore for real zeros). So, the real zeros are: \[ x = 1, 2 \] **Final Answers:** Quotient: \( x^{3}-2 x^{2}+4 x-8 \) Factored Form: \( (x-1)(x-2)(x^{2}+4) \) Zeros: \( x = 1, 2 \)
