(x^3+9x^2-5x+11)/(x^2+2) How do I solve this? Is synthetic division possible or not? The x^2 is confusing me :(

no unfortunately you have to use long division and it is a drag.

if i were doing it i would cheat and look at "quotient and remainder" below http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%28x%5E3%2B9x%5E2-5x%2B11%29%2F%28x%5E2%2B2%29+
