When dividing polynomials if the remainder is zero (no remainder) then the divisor is a factor. Use synthetic division to determine if the first expression is a factor of the second expression:First expression: x- \frac{1}{2} Second expression: 2x^4-x^3+2x-1 If it is a factor then just type the quotient as the answer. If it is not a factor then just type "no". Be sure to type your answer in descending powers of x with now spaces between your terms. Use the "^" key (shift+6) to indicate a power/exponent.Answer:
