Question

What dividend is represented by the synthetic division below?

Answer 1

On edgenutiy (aka trash) the answer is B.

Explanation:

Answer 2

In synthetic division we write only the coefficients of the dividend inside an upside-down division symbol. As we can clearly see from the picture given to us in the question, the coefficients of the dividend inside the upside-down division symbol are 2, 10, 1 and 5.

Now, from the given options, the only option that matches the given coefficients is the second option which is:
`2x^3+10x^2+x+5`.

Thus, the second option,
`2x^3+10x^2+x+5`, is the correct option.
