[Blindmath] Synthetic division algorithm

[Sabra Ewing]

I did read some examples, but I don't know if they were the ones you posted or not. There were also some problems with the way the formula it was written because around it it was showing all of this odd text and percent signs and things like that when I read it on my braille display.The reason I need it is to get the roots of a polynomial that is third degree or greater.this also includes somehow knowing if it has imaginary roots and figuring out what those are.because I am having trouble using the synthetic division algorithm, I can't do it. I didn't do very well in that section on my math course, and for my next math course I will be expected to do it again most likely, so during the time that I'm not actually taking math, I need to figure out how to do it because when Matt starts up again I won't have time.

Thank you.
