Question

Polynomial: 2x3 – x2 – 3x + 5; Divisor: x + 3

Answer 1

Answer:

2x² + 5x – 18 Remainder 59

Step-by-step explanation:

2x³ – x² – 3x + 5 ÷ x + 3

                   2x² + 5x – 18

x + 3 √ 2x³ – x² – 3x + 5

        – 2x³ – 6x²

            0  +  5x² – 3x + 5

                  – 5x² + 15x

                    0 – 18x + 5

                    – –18x –54

                             0 + 59

2x³ – x² – 3x + 5 ÷ x + 3 = 2x² + 5x – 18 Remainder 59

Answer 2

Answer:

x= 5/2= 2.500

x= -1 - Divisor: -3/2 = -1-(i)Divisor:3/2= 0.5000-0.8660(i)

x= -1+Divisor: -3/2= -1+(i)Divisor:3/2=-0.5000+0.8660(i)

Step-by-step explanation:

1

:

Equation at the end of step 1

 (((2 • (x3)) -  3x2) -  3x) -  5  = 0

:

Equation at the end of step

2

:

 ((2x3 -  3x2) -  3x) -  5  = 0  

STEP

3

:

Checking for a perfect cube

3.1    2x3-3x2-3x-5  is not a perfect cube

Trying to factor by pulling out : 3.2      Factoring:  2x3-3x2-3x-5  

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:  -3x-5  

Group 2:  -3x2+2x3  

Pull out from each group separately :

Group 1:   (3x+5) • (-1)

Group 2:   (2x-3) • (x2)

Bad news !! Factoring by pulling out fails :
