Answer 8

So you are given and expected to find the quotient. Polynomial long division works similar to regular long division.

Answer 9

First you ask yourself, how many times can \(3x\) be multiplied to get \(9x^2\)? Then answer is \(3x\) times since \(3x \times 3x = 9x^2\). Place the \(3x\) above the \(9x^2\) as shown:

Answer 10

Next, multiply \((3x + 2) \times 3x\). Place the result of that multiplication below \(9x^2 - 9x\)

\((3x + 2) \text{ times } 3x \text{ is } 9x^2 + 6x\) as shown:

Answer 11

Next, subtract \(9x^2 + 6x\) from \(9x^2 - 9x\) to get \(-15x\)

Answer 12

Place the -15x directly under the bar below -6x

Answer 13

Then bring down the -10:

Answer 14

Next, ask yourself what can we multiply by 3x to get -15x? In other words \(3x \times \text{___} = -15x\) The answer to that is -5. Place -5 above the 2nd term in the trinomial:

Answer 15

b

Answer 16

Thanks for your hard work

Answer 17

Now multiply \((3x +2) \times -5\) to get \(-15x - 10\). Place that result directly beneath the one above it:

Answer 18

The remainder is 0
