Polynomial division

This is a great place and time to apply synthetic division.  Since you are dividing the 3rd order poly by (a+2), let the divisor in synth. div. be -2.

Then:
      _________________
 -2 /   1   6   12    8

     _____-2_-8    -8____________
          1   4     4     0

Since there is no remainder, -2 is a root and (x+2) is a factor of the poly.

The quotient comes from  those coefficinets 1  4  4  

and is    1a^2 + 4a + 4, whose factors are (a+2)^2.

\dfrac{2x(x+4)-1(x+4)}{2(x-4)(x+4)}=\\
\dfrac{(2x-1)(x+4)}{2(x-4)(x+4)}=\\
\dfrac{2x-1}{2(x-4)}
