Answer:

Quotient ( x² -4x +10)

Reminder -2

Explanation:

We have to consider the polynomial function g(x) = x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8

Now, we have to divide g(x) by (x+1)

Let us arrange the terms of g(x) to get (x+1) as common.

x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8

= x³ +x² -4x² -4x +10x +10 -2

= x² (x +1) -4x (x +1) +10 (x +1) -2

= (x +1)( x² -4x +10) -2

Hence, if we divide g(x) by (x +1) then the quotient will be ( x² -4x +10) and the reminder will be -2. (Answer)
