Dividing With Factors

Divide: (2x³ - 5x² + 3x + 7) ÷ (x - 2)

• 2x³ - x² + x + 9
• 2x² - x + 1
• 2x² - x + 1 + 9/x-2
• 2x² - 9x - 15 - 23/x-2

Divide: (2x³ + 5x² + 9) ÷ (x + 3)

• 2x² - x + 3
• 2x³ - x² + 3x
• 2x² + 11x + 33 + 108/x+3
• 2x² - 5x + 12

(3x³ + 5x - 1) ÷ (x + 1)

• 3x³ - 3x² + 8x - 9
• 3x² - 3x + 8 - 9/x+1
• 3x² + 3x + 8 + 7/x+1
• 3x³ + 3x² + 8x + 7

Divide: (2x³ - 5x - 7) ÷ (x - 2)

• 2x³ - 4x² + 3x - 13
• 2x³ + 4x² +3x - 1
• 2x² - 4x + 3 - 13/x-2
• 2x² + 4x + 3 - 1/x-2

Divide: (3x³ - 2x² - 7x + 6) ÷ (x + 1)

• 3x³ - 5x² - 2x + 8
• 3x² + x - 6
• 3x² - 5x - 2 + 8/x+1
• 3x³ + x² - 6x

Divide: (2x³ + 7x² - 6x - 8) ÷ (x + 4)

• 2x² - x - 2
• 2x³ - x² - 2x
• 2x² + 15x + 54 + 208/x+4
• 2x³ + 15x² + 54x + 208
