Question

Using factor method, divide the polynomial a^2 +14a +48 by (a+8).​

Answer 1

Answer:

a square+14a+48/a+8

a+6

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is (a+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem

Using factor method, divide the polynomial a² +14a +48  by  (a+8)

given polynomial p(x) = a²+14a+48

                             g(x) = (a+8)

p(x) = a²+14a+48

      = a² +6a +8a +48       [ splitting 14a = 6a+8a ]  

      = a(a+6) + 8(a+6)      

      =  (a+6)(a+8)

      $\frac{p(x)}{g(x)} =$ $\frac{ (a+6) (a+8) }{(a+8)}$  = (a+6)
