3.95174 rounded to nearest hundredths

The hundredths place is where the 5 is.

Look to the right of the hundredths place and determine if the number is 5 or more or if the number is 4 or less.

In this problem, the number to the right of 5 is 1, and 1 is less than 4.

This means you can keep the 5 the same and every number after the 5 becomes imaginary zeroes.

3.95174 becomes 3.95 (rounded to nearest hundredth).

(x3 + 6x2 + 2x - 6) • (x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

polynomial long division :

3.2     polynomial long division

dividing :   x4+5x3-4x2-8x+6

                              ("dividend")

by         :     x-1     ("divisor")

dividend     x4   +   5x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * x3     x4   -   x3            

remainder         6x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 6x2         6x3   -   6x2        

remainder             2x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 2x1             2x2   -   2x    

remainder               -   6x   +   6

- divisor   * -6x0               -   6x   +   6

remainder                     0

quotient :   x3+6x2+2x-6   remainder:   0
