Helen went to the grocery store to buy potatoes. the store charges $1.17 for each pound of potatoes. on the way out of the store, helen picked up a gallon of ice cream at a cost of $4.44. if helen spent $14.97 at the store, how many pounds of potatoes did she purchase? assume tax is included in the given price.

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."

i am thinking c. sorry if im wrong .
