Answer:

Explanation:

That 3 sitting outside there in that little "box" thing is a root/solution/zero of the polynomial. The numbers underneath the line are the coefficients of the depressed polynomial, which means that the polynomial is 1 degree lower than the degree with which we started. If we started with an x-squared, this degree is a single x, better known as linear (a line). Anyway, (x - 3) is a zero of the polynomial, which also means that it's a factor. So A applies. x = 3 is a root, so C applies. And F also because the depressed polynomial, the remainder, is 2x + 4.
