Question

Find the quotient: (x2−5x+8)÷(x+2)

Answer 1

Answer:

Quotient = x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dividing x^2 - 5x +8 by x + 2

x + 2√x^2 - 5x + 8

Starting with dividing by x

x - 7

x + 2√ x^2 - 5x + 8

Multiplying x by x + 2

x

x + 2√ x^2 - 5x + 8

-

x^2 + 2x

= -7x + 8

Step ii, pick -7 for division

-7x + 8

-

-7x - 14

= +8 -(-14)

= 8+14

= 22

The answer is

( x - 7) remainder 22

(x - 7) is the quointent

22 is the remainder
