Question
- ((x^4 + 3x^3 - 4x^2 + 5x + 3) div (x^2 + x + 4))
Looking at the problem, we have a polynomial division: \((x^{4}+3x^{3}-4x^{2}+5x + 3)\div(x^{2}+x + 4)\)
Step 1: Divide the leading terms
Divide the leading term of the dividend \(x^{4}\) by the leading term of the divisor \(x^{2}\):
\(\frac{x^{4}}{x^{2}}=x^{2}\)
Step 2: Multiply the divisor by \(x^{2}\)
Multiply \((x^{2}+x + 4)\) by \(x^{2}\):
\(x^{2}(x^{2}+x + 4)=x^{4}+x^{3}+4x^{2}\)
Step 3: Subtract this from the dividend
Subtract \((x^{4}+x^{3}+4x^{2})\) from \((x^{4}+3x^{3}-4x^{2}+5x + 3)\):
Step 4: Divide the new leading term
Divide the leading term of \(2x^{3}-8x^{2}+5x + 3\) (which is \(2x^{3}\)) by the leading term of the divisor (\(x^{2}\)):
\(\frac{2x^{3}}{x^{2}} = 2x\)
Step 5: Multiply the divisor by \(2x\)
Multiply \((x^{2}+x + 4)\) by \(2x\):
\(2x(x^{2}+x + 4)=2x^{3}+2x^{2}+8x\)
Step 6: Subtract this from the new dividend
Subtract \((2x^{3}+2x^{2}+8x)\) from \(2x^{3}-8x^{2}+5x + 3\):
Step 7: Divide the new leading term
Divide the leading term of \(-10x^{2}-3x + 3\) (which is \(-10x^{2}\)) by the leading term of the divisor (\(x^{2}\)):
\(\frac{-10x^{2}}{x^{2}}=- 10\)
Step 8: Multiply the divisor by \(-10\)
Multiply \((x^{2}+x + 4)\) by \(-10\):
\(-10(x^{2}+x + 4)=-10x^{2}-10x - 40\)
Step 9: Subtract this from the new dividend
Subtract \((-10x^{2}-10x - 40)\) from \(-10x^{2}-3x + 3\):
Since the degree of the remainder \(7x + 43\) is less than the degree of the divisor \(x^{2}+x + 4\), we stop here.
The quotient is \(x^{2}+2x - 10\) and the remainder is \(7x + 43\)
So, \((x^{4}+3x^{3}-4x^{2}+5x + 3)\div(x^{2}+x + 4)=x^{2}+2x - 10+\frac{7x + 43}{x^{2}+x + 4}\)
