Polynomial Long Division & Cubic Equations Polynomial long division & cubic equations Polynomial One polynomial may be divided by another of lower degree by long division (similar long division to arithmetic long division). Example (x3+ 3 x 2 + x + 9) (x + 2) Write the question in long division x+2 x3 + 3 x 2 + x + 9 form. 3 Begin with the x term. 3 2 x divided by x equals x . x2 Place x 2 above the division bracket x+2 x3 + 3 xx 2 ++ 9 as shown. subtract x3+ 2 x 2 Multiply x + 2 by x2 . 2 xx2( +2) = x 3 + 2 x 2 . x 3 2 3 2 Place x+ 2 x below x+ 3 x then subtract. x322+3 x −( x + 2 xx) = 2 x2 x+2 x3 + 3 xx 2 ++ 9 3 2 “Bring down” the next term (x) as x+2 x ↓ indicated by the arrow. x2 + x Repeat this process with the result x2 + x − 1 until there are no terms remaining. 3 2 x+2 x + 3 xx ++ 9 2 x divided by x equals x. x3+2 x 2 ↓ ↓ 2 xx( +2) = x + 2 x . 2 x+ x ↓ 2 2 + − + =− 2 ( xx) ( x2 x) x x+2 x ↓ Bring down the 9. −x + 9 − − − x divided by x equals − 1. x 2 −1( x + 2) =−− x 2 . +11 (−+x9) −−−( x 2) = 11 The remainder is 11 ())x3+3 x 2 + x + 9 divided by ( x + 2 equals (x2 − x +1 ) , remainder 11. Page 1 of 5 If the polynomial has an “ xn” term missing, add the term with a coefficient of zero. Example (2x3 − 31 x +) ÷( x − 1 ) Rewrite (2x3 − 3 x + 1 ) as 2x3+ 0 x 2 − 31 x + Use the method from the previous example to do the duvision. 3 2 2x÷ x = 2 x 2x2 + 2 x − 1 2xx2( − 12) = x 3 − 2 x 2 x−12 x3 + 0 x 2 −+ 3 x 1 2x3− 0 x 2−(2x3 − 2 x 2 ) = 2 x 2 2x3− 2 x 2 ↓ ↓ 2 2 x− x ↓ 2x÷ x = 2 x 2 3 2xx( − 12) = x2 − 2 x 2x2 − 2 x ↓ 2x2 − 3 x−(2x2 − 2 x ) = − x −x + 1 −x + 1 −x ÷ x =− 1 0 −1( x − 1) =−+ x 1 −+x1− ( x += 1) 0 Remainder is 0 (2x3 − 31 x +) ÷( x − 1 ) = 2x2 + 2 x − 1 , exactly. (Remainder = 0) Exercise 1 Divide the first polynomial by the second. (a) 2x3− 6 x 2 + 52 x + , x − 2 (b) 3x3+ 13 x 2 + 6 x − 12 , 3x + 4 (c) 3x3 + x − 1 , x +1 (d) x3 +2 x − 3 , x −1 (e) 2x4+ 5 x 3 + x + 3 , 2x + 1 (f) 2x3+ x 2 + 512 x + , 2x + 3 Page 2 of 5 Factor If P(x) is a polynomial in x and theorem P(a) = 0 then ( x −−− a) is a factor of P(x) Solving cubic We can use the factor theorem to find one factor of a cubic function, and then equations use polynomial long division to find the remaining factor(s). (Sometimes it is possible to find all solutions by finding three values of x for which P(x) = 0 ). A cubic equation has a maximum of three distinct solutions. Example Solve the equation x3− 5x 2 − 2x + 24 = 0 Look for a value of x that makes P( x) = 0. Try x = 1 first, then work up through the factors of 24. Try x = 1 P(1) =18 x − 1 is not a factor Try x = 2 P(2) = 8 x − 2 is not a factor Try x = − 2 P( −2) =0 therefore P( −2) = 0 x + 2 is a factor Next divide x3− 5x 2 − 2x + 24 by ( x+ 2), using the method of polynomial long division shown above. The remainder should be zero. x2 −7 x + 12 3 2 x+2 x − 5 x −+ 2 x 24 x3+ 2 x 2 −7x2 − 2 x −7x2 − 14 x 12x + 24 + 12x 24 0 The factors of x3− 5x 2 − 2x + 24 are ( x + 2) and ( x2 − 7x + 12) The factors of (x2 − 7x + 12) are ( x − 3) and ( x − 4). Therefore x3− 5x 2 − 2x + 24 has factors ( x+ 2), (x − 3) and ( x − 4) and x3− 5x 2 − 2x + 24 = 0 has solutions x = − 2, x = 3 and x = 4. Page 3 of 5 Exercise 2 Solve the following equations.

  • On the Number of Cubic Orders of Bounded Discriminant Having
    On the number of cubic orders of bounded discriminant having automorphism group C3, and related problems Manjul Bhargava and Ariel Shnidman August 8, 2013 Abstract For a binary quadratic form Q, we consider the action of SOQ on a two-dimensional vector space. This representation yields perhaps the simplest nontrivial example of a prehomogeneous vector space that is not irreducible, and of a coregular space whose underlying group is not semisimple. We show that the nondegenerate integer orbits of this representation are in natural bijection with orders in cubic fields having a fixed “lattice shape”. Moreover, this correspondence is discriminant-preserving: the value of the invariant polynomial of an element in this representation agrees with the discriminant of the corresponding cubic order. We use this interpretation of the integral orbits to solve three classical-style count- ing problems related to cubic orders and fields. First, we give an asymptotic formula for the number of cubic orders having bounded discriminant and nontrivial automor- phism group. More generally, we give an asymptotic formula for the number of cubic orders that have bounded discriminant and any given lattice shape (i.e., reduced trace form, up to scaling). Via a sieve, we also count cubic fields of bounded discriminant whose rings of integers have a given lattice shape. We find, in particular, that among cubic orders (resp. fields) having lattice shape of given discriminant D, the shape is equidistributed in the class group ClD of binary quadratic forms of discriminant D. As a by-product, we also obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of cubic fields of bounded discriminant having any given quadratic resolvent field.

  • Math 2250 HW #10 Solutions
    Math 2250 Written HW #10 Solutions 1. Find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the function g(x) = e−x2 subject to the constraint −2 ≤ x ≤ 1. Answer: First, we check for critical points of g, which is differentiable everywhere. By the Chain Rule, 2 2 g0(x) = e−x · (−2x) = −2xe−x : Since e−x2 > 0 for all x, g0(x) = 0 when 2x = 0, meaning when x = 0. Hence, x = 0 is the only critical point of g. Now we just evaluate g at the critical point and the endpoints: 2 g(−2) = e−(−2) = e−4 = 1=e4 2 g(0) = e−0 = e0 = 1 2 g(2) = e−1 = e−1 = 1=e: Since 1 > 1=e > 1=e4, we see that the absolute maximum of g(x) on this interval is at (0; 1) and the absolute minimum is at (−2; 1=e4). 2. Find all local maxima and minima of the curve y = x2 ln x. Answer: Notice, first of all, that ln x is only defined for x > 0, so the function x2 ln x is likewise only defined for x > 0. This function is differentiable on its entire domain, so we differentiate in search of critical points. Using the Product Rule, 1 y0 = 2x ln x + x2 · = 2x ln x + x = x(2 ln x + 1): x Since we're only allowed to consider x > 0, we see that the derivative is zero only when 2 ln x + 1 = 0, meaning ln x = −1=2. Therefore, we have a critical point at x = e−1=2.

  • Supplement 1: Toolkit Functions
    Supplement 1: Toolkit Functions What is a Function? The natural world is full of relationships between quantities that change. When we see these relationships, it is natural for us to ask “If I know one quantity, can I then determine the other?” This establishes the idea of an input quantity, or independent variable, and a corresponding output quantity, or dependent variable. From this we get the notion of a functional relationship in which the output can be determined from the input. For some quantities, like height and age, there are certainly relationships between these quantities. Given a specific person and any age, it is easy enough to determine their height, but if we tried to reverse that relationship and determine age from a given height, that would be problematic, since most people maintain the same height for many years. Function Function: A rule for a relationship between an input, or independent, quantity and an output, or dependent, quantity in which each input value uniquely determines one output value. We say “the output is a function of the input.” Function Notation The notation output = f(input) defines a function named f. This would be read “output is f of input” Graphs as Functions Oftentimes a graph of a relationship can be used to define a function. By convention, graphs are typically created with the input quantity along the horizontal axis and the output quantity along the vertical. The most common graph has y on the vertical axis and x on the horizontal axis, and we say y is a function of x, or y = f(x) when the function is named f.

  • A Comparison of Low Performing Students' Achievements in Factoring
    International Conference on Educational Technologies 2013 A COMPARISON OF LOW PERFORMING STUDENTS’ ACHIEVEMENTS IN FACTORING CUBIC POLYNOMIALS USING THREE DIFFERENT STRATEGIES 1Ugorji I. Ogbonnaya, 2David L. Mogari & 2Eric Machisi 1Dept. of Maths, Sci. & Tech. Education, Tshwane University of Technology, South Africa 2Institute for Science & Technology Education, University of South Africa ABSTRACT In this study, repeated measures design was employed to compare low performing students’ achievements in factoring cubic polynomials using three strategies. Twenty-five low-performing Grade 12 students from a secondary school in Limpopo province took part in the study. Data was collected using achievement test and was analysed using repeated measures analysis of variance. Findings indicated significant differences in students’ mean scores due to the strategy used. On average, students achieved better scores with the synthetic division strategy than with long division and equating coefficients strategies. The study recommends that students should be offered opportunities to try out a variety of mathematical solution strategies rather than confine them to only strategies in their prescribed textbooks. KEYWORDS Cubic Polynomials, equating coefficients, long division, low performing students, Synthetic division 1. INTRODUCTION Cubic polynomials are functions of the form y = Ax3 + Bx2 + Cx + D, where the highest exponent on the variable is three, A, B, C and D are known coefficients and A≠0. Factoring cubic polynomials helps to determine the zeros (solutions) of the function. However, the procedure can be more tedious and difficult for students of low-mathematical ability especially in cases where strategies such as grouping and/or factoring the greatest common factor (GCF) are inapplicable. Questions that require students to factorise cubic functions are common in the South African Grade 12 (senior certificate) Mathematics Examination.

  • Cubic Polynomials with Real Or Complex Coefficients: the Full
    Cubic polynomials with real or complex coefficients: The full picture Nicholas S. Bardell RMIT University [email protected] Introduction he cubic polynomial with real coefficients y = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d in which Ta | 0, has a rich and interesting history primarily associated with the endeavours of great mathematicians like del Ferro, Tartaglia, Cardano or Vieta who sought a solution for the roots (Katz, 1998; see Chapter 12.3: The Solution of the Cubic Equation). Suffice it to say that since the times of renaissance mathematics in Italy various techniques have been developed which yield the three roots of a general cubic equation. A ‘cubic formula’ does exist—much like the one for finding the two roots of a quadratic equation—but in the case of the cubic equation the formula is not easily memorised and the solution steps can get quite involved (Abramowitz & Stegun, 1970; see Chapter 3: Elementary Analytical Methods, 3.8.2 Solution of Cubic Equations). Hence it is not surprising that with the advent of the digital computer, numerical root- finding algorithms such as those attributed to Newton-Raphson, Halley, and Householder have become the solution of choice (Weisstein, n.d.). Students studying a mathematics specialism as a part of the Victorian VCE (Mathematical Methods, 2010), HSC in NSW (Mathematics Extension in NSW, 1997) or Queensland QCE (Mathematics C, 2009) are expected to be able Australian Senior Mathematics Journal vol. 30 no. 2 to recognise, plot, factorise, and even solve cubic polynomials as described by ACARA (ACARA, n.d., Unit 1, Topic 1: Functions and Graphs).
