Explanation:

Question 4

Step 1: Divide the leading terms

Divide the leading term of the dividend \(5x^4\) by the leading term of the divisor \(x^2\), we get \(5x^2\).

Step 2: Multiply the divisor by \(5x^2\)

Multiply \((x^2 + 2x - 4)\) by \(5x^2\), we have \(5x^4 + 10x^3 - 20x^2\).

Step 3: Subtract from the dividend

Subtract \(5x^4 + 10x^3 - 20x^2\) from \(5x^4 - 2x^3 - 7x^2 - 39\):

Step 4: Divide the new leading term

Divide the leading term of \(-12x^3 + 13x^2 - 39\) (which is \(-12x^3\)) by the leading term of the divisor \(x^2\), we get \(-12x\).

Step 5: Multiply the divisor by \(-12x\)

Multiply \((x^2 + 2x - 4)\) by \(-12x\), we have \(-12x^3 - 24x^2 + 48x\).

Step 6: Subtract from the new dividend

Subtract \(-12x^3 - 24x^2 + 48x\) from \(-12x^3 + 13x^2 - 39\):

Step 7: Divide the new leading term

Divide the leading term of \(37x^2 - 48x - 39\) (which is \(37x^2\)) by the leading term of the divisor \(x^2\), we get \(37\).

Step 8: Multiply the divisor by \(37\)

Multiply \((x^2 + 2x - 4)\) by \(37\), we have \(37x^2 + 74x - 148\).

Step 9: Subtract from the new dividend

Subtract \(37x^2 + 74x - 148\) from \(37x^2 - 48x - 39\):

$$

Step 1: Divide the leading terms

Divide the leading term of the dividend \(2x^3\) by the leading term of the divisor \(x^2\), we get \(2x\).

Step 2: Multiply the divisor by \(2x\)

Multiply \((x^2 + 6x + 8)\) by \(2x\), we have \(2x^3 + 12x^2 + 16x\).

Step 3: Subtract from the dividend

Subtract \(2x^3 + 12x^2 + 16x\) from \(2x^3 + 17x^2 + 46x + 40\):

$$

$$

Step 4: Divide the new leading term

Divide the leading term of \(5x^2 + 30x + 40\) (which is \(5x^2\)) by the leading term of the divisor \(x^2\), we get \(5\).

Step 5: Multiply the divisor by \(5\)

Multiply \((x^2 + 6x + 8)\) by \(5\), we have \(5x^2 + 30x + 40\).

Step 6: Subtract from the new dividend

Subtract \(5x^2 + 30x + 40\) from \(5x^2 + 30x + 40\):
