Rewrite 12x236x+2812x^2 - 36x + 28 in the form (4x4)×q(x)+r(x)(4x - 4) \times q(x) + r(x).

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We have a polynomial 12x236x+2812x^2 - 36x + 28.
2. We want to rewrite this polynomial in the form (4x4)×q(x)+r(x)(4x - 4) \times q(x) + r(x).
3. q(x)q(x) is the quotient polynomial when the original polynomial is divided by (4x4)(4x - 4).
4. r(x)r(x) is the remainder polynomial when the original polynomial is divided by (4x4)(4x - 4).

STEP 2

To rewrite the polynomial, we will perform polynomial long division, dividing 12x236x+2812x^2 - 36x + 28 by (4x4)(4x - 4).

STEP 3

Set up the division:
q(x)4x412x236x+28 \begin{array}{r} q(x) \\ 4x - 4 \,|\overline{\,12x^2 - 36x + 28} \\ \end{array}

STEP 4

Determine the first term of q(x)q(x) by dividing the leading term of the polynomial 12x212x^2 by the leading term of 4x44x - 4, which is 4x4x.
12x24x=3x \frac{12x^2}{4x} = 3x

STEP 5

Multiply (4x4)(4x - 4) by the first term of q(x)q(x), which is 3x3x.
(4x4)×3x=12x212x (4x - 4) \times 3x = 12x^2 - 12x

STEP 6

Subtract this result from the original polynomial:
12x236x+28(12x212x)24x+28 \begin{array}{r} 12x^2 - 36x + 28 \\ -(12x^2 - 12x) \\ \hline -24x + 28 \\ \end{array}

STEP 7

Determine the next term of q(x)q(x) by dividing the new leading term of the polynomial 24x-24x by the leading term of 4x44x - 4, which is 4x4x.
24x4x=6 \frac{-24x}{4x} = -6

STEP 8

Multiply (4x4)(4x - 4) by the next term of q(x)q(x), which is 6-6.
(4x4)×6=24x+24 (4x - 4) \times -6 = -24x + 24

STEP 9

Subtract this result from the polynomial we obtained after the first subtraction:
24x+28(24x+24)4 \begin{array}{r} -24x + 28 \\ -(-24x + 24) \\ \hline 4 \\ \end{array}

STEP 10

Now we have the remainder, which is 44. Since the degree of the remainder is less than the degree of the divisor (4x4)(4x - 4), we can stop the division process.

STEP 11

Combine the terms of q(x)q(x) and the remainder r(x)r(x) to rewrite the original polynomial in the desired form:
12x236x+28=(4x4)×(3x6)+4 12x^2 - 36x + 28 = (4x - 4) \times (3x - 6) + 4

STEP 12

Verify the result by expanding (4x4)×(3x6)+4(4x - 4) \times (3x - 6) + 4:
(4x4)×(3x6)+4=(12x212x)+(24x+24)+4 (4x - 4) \times (3x - 6) + 4 = (12x^2 - 12x) + (-24x + 24) + 4
=12x212x24x+24+4 = 12x^2 - 12x - 24x + 24 + 4
=12x236x+28 = 12x^2 - 36x + 28

STEP 13

Since the expansion matches the original polynomial, our division and rewriting are correct.
The polynomial 12x236x+2812x^2 - 36x + 28 rewritten in the form (4x4)×q(x)+r(x)(4x - 4) \times q(x) + r(x) is:
12x236x+28=(4x4)×(3x6)+4 12x^2 - 36x + 28 = (4x - 4) \times (3x - 6) + 4
