Katniss divided x^3+2x^2-3x-4 by x+1. she didnt get a remainder. do you agree with her?

ANSWER

Katnis is right

EXPLANATION

We use the Remainder Theorem to check if she is right.

According to the Remainder Theorem, if the polynomial function,

is divided by x+1, then the remainder is given by

We substitute x=-1 into the function to obtain,

We simplify to get:

Katnis is right because the remainder is zero

no, because the sides are not congruent
