  2. 3. States that if f(x) is a polynomial of degree n greater than or equal to 1, and 'a' is any real number, then (x - a) is a factor of f(x) if f(a) = 0.

  5. 8. the mathematical method for dividing large numbers into smaller groups or parts
  6. 11. a combination of a real number and an imaginary number
  7. 13. States that when a polynomial, f(x), is divided by a linear polynomial , x - a, the remainder of that division will be equivalent to f(a)
