Okay, think I got it. Just double checking:

     r |     c₁       c₂   …   c_n

                           r•x₁  …  r•x_n

                x₁         x₂   …   x_n

Did I get it? (Pls say yes, pls say yes...) XD Thanks a ton man! You probably save my grade from going to an F!

Thanks, Rom, but I have to do it in stupid synthetic division or I get the entire question wrong.

Thanks, CPhill! So, essentially, when you use synthetic division, remove the variable, execute long division on each coefficient by the factor you are testing, and reinsert the variable with respect to each part's powers? Or am I still wrong? Because I'm still quite lost with synthetic division. I mean, I would use long division, but no, we have to use synthetic division because it makes that much of a difference in the long term.

Don’t know where this is from, but their phrasing is annoying. Ok, here goes.

When it’s talking about the square being palindromic, it means it is the same forwards and backwards, e.g. 1794683864971. As for the number base stuff, I have no clue. Speaking of which, what language are you using? It seems like base code, which is only really useful to my brethren, the Hackers.

Sorry I couldn’t be much help! If you reply w/ more info, I’ll try to follow up.

Well, the y-axis is easy. Since you flipped it 180,on the x-axis, that makes the y average out to 0. I know. Math is weird like that. 

Anyways, the x-axis would just be an average between the two old ones. 2+12=14/2=7

So, your final answer is simply (7, 0). Hope this helped!

So, since numbers are infinite, it would effectively be 100%? Since there's endless numbers, there must also be endless primes, right?

That's one way of doing it. I highly recommend against calculating each possible configuration. My friend tried and gave up after 2 1/2 days without rest.

The placement exam is essentially their way of seeing if you are smart enough to take the class. Think of it as a stuff of security for their money. This way, if you aren't smart enough, they won't waste money. I would recommend Khan Academy for practice. They also teach fixing, which I saw you were interested in.

Thanks!
