Question

In a polynomial division problem, the dividend does not have an X^3-term. When the problem is written in long division form, what should be the coefficient of the x^3-term in the dividend? Α. 0 B.-1 C. 1 D. 3​

Answer 1

0

Explanation:

When a number is not included or used, it can be considered 0.

This makes sense, because if it had a actualy value, it would effect the polynomial, and change the answer.

The only time it would not effect the polynomial is when it 0.

Hope this makes sense :D
