Question

Dividing Polynomials by binomials? Not sure how to do this.

Answer 1

\[(y^2-y+2) \div (y+2) \] This is one of my problems.

Answer 2

\[y+2\sqrt{y^2-y+2}\] That's not a square root, I know this is the first step.

Answer 3

you want a easy trick to get the answer quickly?

Answer 4

\[\frac{y^2-y+2}{y+2}=\frac{y^2+2y-3y+2}{y+2}\]
\[=\frac{y^2+2y}{y+2}+\frac{-3y+2}{y+2}\]
\[y+\frac{-3y+2}{y+2}\] now use the same gimmick for the second part

Answer 5

Thanks :)

Answer 6

yw
otherwise you have to just divide like you do with numbers

Answer 7

unless you know synthetic division, in which case it is even easier

Answer 8

1 -1 2
-2| -2 6
_______________
1 -3 4

answer is \(y-3+\frac{4}{y+2}\)
