Question

What is the quotient

Answer 1

Answer:

The quotient is 3x - 11 + 60/(x + 5) ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* We will use the long division to solve the problem

- The dividend is 3x² + 4x + 5

- The divisor is x + 5

- The quotient is the answer of the division

- If the divisor not a factor of a dividend, the quotient has

  a remainder

* Lets solve the problem

- At first divide the first term in the dividend by the first term in

 the divisor

∵ 3x² ÷ x = 3x

- Multiply the divisor by 3x

∴ 3x (x + 5) = 3x² + 15x

-Subtract this expression from the dividend

∴ 3x² + 4x + 5 - (3x² + 15x) = 3x² + 4x + 5 - 3x² - 15x = -11x + 5

- Divide the first term -11x in the new dividend by the first

 term x in the divisor

∴ -11x ÷ x = -11

- Multiply the divisor by -11

∴ -11(x + 5) = -11x - 55

-Subtract this expression from the new dividend

∴ -11x + 5 - (-11x - 55) = -11x + 5 + 11x + 55 = 60

∴ The quotient is 3x - 11 with remainder = 60

* The quotient is 3x - 11 + 60/(x + 5)
