Q. Divide the polynomials.Your answer should be a polynomial.x2x3−5x2+x=
Understanding division of polynomials: Understand the division of polynomials. When dividing a polynomial by a monomial, you divide each term of the polynomial by the monomial.
Dividing the first term: Divide the first term of the polynomial by x.(2x3)/x=2x(3−1)=2x2
Dividing the second term: Divide the second term of the polynomial by x.(−5x2)/x=−5x(2−1)=−5x
Dividing the third term: Divide the third term of the polynomial by x.x/x=x(1−1)=1
Combining the results: Combine the results of the divisions to get the final polynomial.The result of the division is 2x2−5x+1.
