Question

(x^3+2x^2-71x+88) divided by (x+10)
Please Help... Divide this problem

Answer 1

x^2 - 8x + 9 + -2/(X +10)

Explanation:

1) divide x^3 by x to get x^2

2) multiply x +10 by x^2 to get x^3 + 10x^2

3) subtract x^3 + 10x^2 from x^3 + 2x^2 to get -8x^2

4) divide -8x^2 by x to get -8x

5) multiply -8x by x +10 to get -8x^2 - 80x

6) subtract -8x^2 - 80x from -8x^2 - 71x to get 9x

7) divide 9x by x to get 9

8) multiply 9 by x + 10 to get 9x + 90

9) subtract 9x + 90 from 9x + 88 to get -2.
