What mistake did lorie make? Please help

Answer 1

Option C)

Explanation:

x² + x - 1) x³ + 6x² + 0x + 5 ( x + 5

- (x³ + x² - x)

5x² + x + 5

-(5x² + 5x - 5)

-4x + 10

Result :
`x+5+ (-4x+10)/((x^(2)+x-1) )`

By the comparing the result with the Lorie's solution,

She made a mistake in the last step in which she combined the constant incorrectly.

Therefore, Option (c) will be the answer.
