Use long division to determine the quotient of the polynomials. (x3 – 7x – 6) ÷ (x – 4) which of the following options best describes the relationship between the polynomial division and the remainder?

a) the quotient has a remainder of zero. therefore, the divisor is a factor of the dividend.

b) the quotient has a remainder of 9. therefore, the divisor is not a factor of the dividend.

c) the quotient has a remainder of 30. therefore, the divisor is not factor of the dividend.

d) the quotient has a remainder of 36. therefore, the divisor is a factor of the dividend.
