How do you divide (-2x^3-2x^2+43x+32)/(x-5) ? Algebra Rational Equations and Functions Division of Polynomials 1 Answer Roella W. Jan 19, 2016 (-2x^2 -12x - 17) -53/(x-5) Explanation: Divide x-5 into the first term, giving -2x^2. Multiply x-5 -2x^2 and subtract this from the original numerator. Repeat this process until there is an indivisible remainder. Thus the answer is (-2x^2 -12x - 17) -53/(x-5) Answer link Related questions What is an example of long division of polynomials?
