Answer:

Explanation:

Okay, so assuming you have set up your division problem, you first have to find a value that will set x = to x^3. This value is x^2. So, put that above the division symbol. Next, multiply (x +4) by x^2. Then, subtract that answer from x^3 + x^2. You should get -3x^2 - 10x. Then, find a value to get x to -x^2. This value is -3x. So, put that above the division symbol. Multiply (x + 4) by -3x. Then, subtract that value from -3x^2 - 10x. You should get 2x + 8 as your answer. Now find a value to get x to 2x. 2 should work. So, put that above the division symbol. Multiply (x +4) by 2. When subtract your answer from 2x + 8 you get 0. Therefore, the answer is x^2 - 3x +2. Hope this helps!!
