Question

D) Divide the polynomial 2x

3 − 5x

2 + 7x + 1 by 2x – 3 and write the quotient

and the remainder​

Answer 1

Answer:

Divide 3x3 – 5x2 + 10x – 3 by 3x + 1

I start with the long-division set-up:

Looking only at the leading terms, I divide 3x3 by 3x to get x2. This is what I put on top:
