Q. Divide the polynomials. Your answer should be a polynomial.xx2+2x=□
Given division problem: We are given the division problem (x2+2x)/x. To solve this, we will divide each term in the numerator by the denominator individually.
Step 1: Divide x2 by x: First, divide the term x2 by x. This gives us x2/x=x, because when we divide powers with the same base, we subtract the exponents (2−1=1).
Step 2: Divide 2x by x: Next, divide the term 2x by x. This gives us x2x=2, because the x terms cancel out (they are the same power of x, which is x1).
Step 3: Combine the results: Now, combine the results of the two divisions. We have x from the first division and 2 from the second division, so the result is x+2.
Step 4: Final result: We have completed the division without any remainder. The polynomial x2+2x divided by x is x+2.
