Thread: Polynomials in integer rings

For #2 a polynomial of degree less than 5 is written as where . For each we have two choices either 0 or 1 since we are working in . Therefore, there are such polynomials. For #3 do you know how to apply the division algorithm?

EDIT: Error! It should have been and in that case we have .

There are actually polynomials of degree less than 5.

For exercice #3, do a division. Method is the same as with integers.

I presume you meant ex^4?

Thanks for the help, will get back to you on q3, too early atm and I have a linear alegebra test soon

Done the division, worked great, many thanks.
