When you use synthetic division to divide (x3+4x2−2x+1)÷(x+2)

Question

, what is the value of the divisor?(1 point)

Answer 1

In synthetic division, the divisor is typically expressed in the form \( x - c \). For the expression you provided, \( x + 2 \), we can rewrite it in that form as \( x - (-2) \).

Thus, the value of the divisor in this case is \( -2 \).
