Question

What is the quotient when x^3-5x^2+3x-8 is devided by x-3

Answer 1

For this case, we must build a quotient that, when multiplied by the divisor, eliminates the terms of the dividend until it reaches the remainder.

It must be fulfilled that:

Dividend = Quotient * Divider + Remainder

According to the attached image we have the quotient is:

`x ^ 2-2x-3`

Answer:

`x ^ 2-2x-3`
