The remainder is color(red)(133)133 and the quotient is =x^2+5x+26=x2+5x+26

Explanation:

Let's perform a synthetic division

color(white)(aa)aa55color(white)(aaaaa)aaaaa|color(white)(aaa)aaa11color(white)(aaaaa)aaaaa00color(white)(aaaaaa)aaaaaa11color(white)(aaaaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaaaa33
color(white)(aaaaaaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaaaaaa------------

color(white)(aaaa)aaaacolor(white)(aaaa)aaaa|color(white)(aaaa)aaaacolor(white)(aaaaa)aaaaa55color(white)(aaaaaa)aaaaaa2525color(white)(aaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaa130130
color(white)(aaaaaaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaaaaaa------------

color(white)(aaaa)aaaacolor(white)(aaaa)aaaa|color(white)(aaa)aaa11color(white)(aaaaa)aaaaa55color(white)(aaaaaa)aaaaaa2626color(white)(aaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaacolor(red)(133)133

The remainder is color(red)(133)133 and the quotient is =x^2+5x+26=x2+5x+26

(x^3+x+3)/(x-5)=x^2+5x+26+133/(x-5)x3+x+3x5=x2+5x+26+133x5

x^2+5x+26+133/(x-5)x2+5x+26+133x5

Explanation:

"one way is to use the divisor as a factor in the numerator"one way is to use the divisor as a factor in the numerator

"consider the numerator"consider the numerator

color(red)(x^2)(x-5)color(magenta)(+5x^2)+x+3x2(x5)+5x2+x+3

=color(red)(x^2)(x-5)color(red)(+5x)(x-5)color(magenta)(+25x)+x+3=x2(x5)+5x(x5)+25x+x+3

=color(red)(x^2)(x-5)color(red)(+5x)(x-5)color(red)(+26)(x-5)color(magenta)(+130)+3=x2(x5)+5x(x5)+26(x5)+130+3

=color(red)(x^2)(x-5)color(red)(+5x)(x-5)color(red)(+26)(x-5)+133=x2(x5)+5x(x5)+26(x5)+133

"quotient "=color(red)(x^2+5x+26)," remainder" =133quotient =x2+5x+26, remainder=133

rArr(x^3+x+3)/(x-5)=x^2+5x+26+133/(x-5)x3+x+3x5=x2+5x+26+133x5

Quotient=x^2+5x+26=x2+5x+26 and remainder133/(x-5)133x5

Explanation:

color(white)(..........)color(white)(.)x^2+5x+26
x-5|overline(x^3+0+x+3)
color(white)(............)ul(x^3-5x^2)
color(white)(......................)5x^2+x
color(white)(......................)ul(5x^2-25x)
color(white)(..................................)26x+3
color(white)(..................................)ul(26x-130)
color(white)(................................................)133

(x^3+x+3) / (x-5) = x^2+5x+26+133/(x-5)
