Use synthetic division.

That should help in case you don't know it. It's too complex to explain in this fashion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks i'll try that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what i found out is 10x^2/2x+1 -x-1/2x+1 = 5x-3 -2 what do you think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yyou sure you typed the problem correctly? it is 10x^2 -x-1 at the beginning?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10x^2-x-1 by 2x+1 how about now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, I would use long division for this problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did use it. did i get it wrong..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand as you typed it
