Question

if x^2-x-6 is divided by (x+2), then the quotient is​

Answer 1

Answer:

X-3 is the quotient, and the factors are - 2 and 3

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ { x}^{2} - x - 6 }{x + 2} \\ = \frac{ {x}^{2} - 3x + 2x - 6 }{x + 2} \\ = \frac{x(x - 3) + 2(x - 3)}{x + 2} \\ = \frac{(x - 3)(x + 2)}{x + 2} \\ = x - 3$
