Question

Divide the 4th degree polynomial

Answer 1

Answer:

• quotient: 10x +16
• remainder: 28x^2 +10x +22

Step-by-step explanation:

The attachment shows the steps.

  quotient: 10x +16

  remainder: 28x^2 +10x +22

_____

Polynomial long division is easier than numerical long division because you only need to examine the first terms to determine the quotient term.

The first quotient term is 10x^4/x^3 = 10x.

The second quotient term is 16x^3/x^3 = 16.

When the leading dividend term is lower degree than the divisor, that dividend is the remainder.
