Synthetic division is a way to divide polynomials. It takes up less space than polynomial long division. It is mostly used to divide a polynomial by a binomial that looks like this:  formula_1 but it can be divided by any polynomial with one variable. Synthetic division can be used to make calculations without writing variables. It also uses a small number of calculations, and takes less room on paper than long division. The subtractions in long division are changed to additions by changing the signs at the very beginning, which keeps sign errors from happening. Synthetic division for linear denominators is also called division in Ruffini's rule. Process. The first example is synthetic division with a denominator formula_2 that only has one variable.  formula_3 The coefficients of the polynomial to divide are put at the top (the zero is for the unseen formula_4).  formula_5 Make the coefficients of the denominator their opposite.  formula_6 Put every coefficient of the divisor except the first one on the left.  formula_7 Put the first number after the bar, 1, at the bottom.  formula_8 Multiply the dropped number by the number before the bar, and put it under the next coefficient, 12.  formula_9 Add the numbers in the second column (which equals -9 in this example).  formula_10 Do the last two steps again to get this:  formula_11 Count the terms to the left of the bar. Since there is only one, the remainder has degree zero, which means it is a constant that is more than zero. Put an up and down line next to the last number, -123.  formula_12 The terms are written with a rising degree from right to left. It begins with degree zero for both the remainder and the result.  formula_13 The last part of the division is:  formula_14

Duty is a term that conveys a sense of moral commitment or obligation to someone or something. The moral commitment usually results in action and is not a matter of passive feeling or mere recognition. When someone recognizes a duty, that person theoretically commits himself to its fulfillment without considering their own self-interest. This is not to suggest that living a life of duty entirely precludes a life of leisure; however, its fulfillment generally involves some sacrifice of immediate self-interest. Typically, "the demands of justice, honor, and reputation are deeply bound up" with duty. Cicero discusses the concept of duty in his work “On Duty". There, he suggests that duties can come from four different sources: Other uses of the word have sprung from the root idea of obligation, a concept involved in the notion of duty. For example, the concept is used to describe the services performed by a minister of a church, by a soldier, or by any employee or servant. Many schools of thought have debated the idea of duty. Many assert mankind's duty on their own terms, but some philosophers have absolutely rejected a sense of duty. Duty has to be accepted and understood on the basis of one's foundation of sense and knowledge. Therefore, duty and its manifestations vary with values from culture to culture. On one hand duty may be seen as terms of reference, job description, or behavior - and it is all of that ... but duty is not only about doing things right, it is about doing the right thing.
