Answer:

2x³ + 10x² + x + 5

Explanation:

The coefficients of the dividend are represented by the top row, that is

2 10 1 5 → 2x³ + 10x² + x + 5

The divisor is ( x + 5) and

the quotient is represented by the first 3 numbers on the bottom row

2 0 1 → 2x² + 1

The last zero on the same row is the remainder

Since zero this indicates that (x + 5) is a factor of 2x³ + 10x² + x + 5
