A financial analyst at a global logistics firm is using synthetic division to divide a profit projection polynomial P(x)=3x3+10x2+6x−2P(x) = {}3x^3 + 10x^2 + 6x - 2 by a regional scaling factor (x+2)(x + 2). According to the standard setup for this specific division, what numerical value for the constant cc should the analyst place in the divisor box?
