Which of the following defines a Fibonacci sequence? 

• It is a sequence such that the reciprocals of the terms form an arithmetic sequence.

• It is a sequence where every term after the first is obtained by adding a constant called the common difference. 

• It is a sequence where its first two terms

  is either both 1, or 0 and 1; and each

  term, thereafter, is obtained by adding the two preceding terms. 

• D. It is a sequence where each term after the first is obtained by multiplying the preceding term by a nonzero constant called the common ratio.

Andy divided x⁴ + 3x² – 4x – 2

by x – 2 using synthetic division. Her work is shown below. Identify her mistake.

• Andy wrote the remainder incorrectly.

• Andy did not use a zero-place holder for the x³ term.

• Andy added instead of subtracting the rows.

• Andy should have used – 2 as his division since the divisor is

  x – 2.

What theorem states that x - c is a factor of a polynomial if and only if the remainder is zero.

• Remainder Theorem

• Algorithm

• Synthetic Division

• Factor Theorem
