Answer:

2x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x -6 -(4/x^4 - 4x^3 + x^2 +2)

Explanation:

x-2 = 0

since there is a missing x you have to put in a 0

2 | 1 -4 1 0 2

1 2 -4 -6 -6

1 -2 -3 -6 -4

x^3 x^2 x # remainder

bring down the 1 then multiply by 2 then add to -4

take the -2 multiply by 2 and add to 1 continuously do the samething

now take all the x's and go down one since you're taking out a x

put ing standard form

2x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x -6 -(4/x^4 - 4x^3 + x^2 +2)

i beleive that's the answer, good luck on whatever you're doing
