Answer
Analysis
To divide
Step 1: Set up the synthetic division.
The divisor is x - 1, so we will use 1 for synthetic division.
The coefficients of the polynomial are:
6, 5, -3, 0, 2
Step 2: Perform the synthetic division.
1 | 6 5 -3 0 2
| 6 11 8 8
|-----------------------
6 11 8 8 10
Step 3: Interpretation of the results.
1.Bring down the first coefficient (6).
2.Multiply 6 by 1 (the divisor), resulting in 6, and add it to the next coefficient (5), giving us (11).
3.Multiply 11 by 1, resulting in 11, and add it to the next coefficient (-3), giving us (8).
4.Multiply 8 by 1, resulting in 8, and add it to the next coefficient (0), giving us (8).
5.Multiply 8 by 1, resulting in 8, and add it to the last coefficient (2), giving us (10) (which is the remainder).
Final Result:
The quotient is
