Answer:

Answer will be x-1

Explanation:

We have given polynomial
2x^2+3x+1 and
2x^3+x^2-2x-1

We have to find the polynomial that when the polynomial is multiplied with l
2x^2+3x+1 it gives
2x^3+x^2-2x-1

When we divide
2x^3+x^2-2x-1 by
2x^2+3x+1 we get the x-1

As
(2x^3+x^2-2x-1)/(2x^2+3x+1)=x-1

So
{2x^3+x^2-2x-1}={2x^2+3x+1}*( x-1)

So the polynomial will be x-1
