Question

divide (2x^3 + x + 3) / (x - 3)

Answer 1

With that you could do synthetic or poly-long division. Know what those are and how far did you get?

Answer 2

i tried synthetic division a while ago but i failed

Answer 3

OK. Then how about polynomial long division, you ever tried that way? Sometimes it makes more sense to people.

Answer 4

And sometimes, poly-long is required when synthetic is not possible, so it is good to develop the skill.

Answer 5

Do you know what the setup would be for this one in poly-long division?

Answer 6

how do you do poly-long division?

Answer 7

Now, if you forgot the \(0x^2\) you could have some serious problems in the division.
