easy
f(x)/g(x)
replace
(-2x^3+x^2+16x-15)/(x+3)
you can simlify this to get
-2x^2+7x-5

Answer:


(f(x))/(g(x))=-2x^2+7x-5

Explanation:


f(x)=-2x^3 + x^2 + 16x -15


g(x)= x+3

Now we need to find f(x) divide by g(x)


(f(x))/(g(x))

Plug in f(x) and g(x)


(f(x))/(g(x))=(-2x^3 + x^2 + 16x -15)/(x+3)

LEts divide it using long division

-2x^2+7x-5

-----------------------------------------


x+3
-2x^3 + x^2 + 16x -15


-2x^3-6x^2

------------------------------------------------(subtract)


7x^2+16x


7x^2+21x

---------------------------------------------------(subtract)


-5x - 15x


-5x - 15x

-------------------------------------------(subtract)

(f(x))/(g(x))=-2x^2+7x-5
