Factor theorem + Algebraic division Flashcards
1
Q
If f(x+b) is a factor of f(x) then f(-b) must =
A
0
2
Q
What is the factor theorem?
A
(ax+b) is a factor of f(x) if and only if f(-b/a) =0
3
Q
If f(x-3) is a factor then
A
f(+3)=0 not f(-3)
4
Q
What are the 2 methods for algebraic division
A
long division and grid method
5
Q
What is the finishing statement that you should ALWAYS put at the end of a factor theorum Q
A
therefore f(ax+b) is a factor of f(x)
