QuestionUse synthetic division to find $\left(x^{2}-20\right) \div(x-1)$

Studdy Solution
Interpret the result:
- The numbers in the bottom row represent the coefficients of the quotient polynomial. - Since we divided a quadratic polynomial by a linear polynomial, the quotient is a linear polynomial. - The quotient is $1x + 1$ and the remainder is $-19$.
Thus, the result of the division is:
$$x + 1 \quad \text{with a remainder of} \quad -19$$
The quotient is $x + 1$ and the remainder is $-19$.
