The quotient of
\(P(x) = 2x^3 + 2x^2 - 4x + 6\) divided by D(x) = x + 4 is
\(2x^2 - 2x + 1\), and the remainder is -74.

To find the quotient and remainder when
\( P(x) = 2x^3 + 2x^2 - 4x + 6 \) is divided by
\( D(x) = x + 4 \), perform polynomial long division.

Here's the process:

```

2x^2 - 2x + 1

__________________

x + 4 | 2x^3 + 2x^2 - 4x + 6

- (2x^3 + 8x^2)

_______________

-6x^2 - 4x

+ 6x^2 + 24x

______________

20x + 6

- (20x + 80)

______________

-74

```

Therefore, the quotient is
\(2x^2 - 2x + 1\) and the remainder is -74. The division can be expressed as:


\[ P(x) = (2x^2 - 2x + 1)(x + 4) - 74 \]

So, the quotient is
\(2x^2 - 2x + 1\) and the remainder is -74.
