Two polynomial functions are given. m(x) = 2x^3+ x-16
p(x) = x^2-4
Is the degree of the quotient of m(x) and p(x) less than, greater than, or equal to the degree of p(x)? Will this always be true when dividing polynomial functions?

When you dilate a figure with a scale factor of 1/2, what will the dilated figure look like?                                                                                           a: the dilated figure will have side lengths that are half the length of the original side lengths.                                                                          b: the angles in the dilated figure will be half the measure of the original figure.                                                                                c: the dilated figure will have side lengths twice the length of the original.
