Question:

Let f, g, and h be polynomials such that:
h(x)=f(x)g(x)
If the constant term of f(x) is -4 and the constant term of h(x) is 3, what is g(0)?

an help appreciated!

why not simplify the problem and let the 2 polynomials both be linear

m,n are both non zero and real.

 

f(x)=mx4g(x)=nx+k h(x)=(mx4)(nx+k)=(somenumber)x2+(somenumber)x4kbut4k=3sok=34

 

 

So      g(0) = -3/4
