Answer

So, the solution to the polynomial division problem (8x2+18x+14)÷(2x+3) is the quotient 4x+3 and the remainder 5.

Steps

Step 1 :Given the polynomial division problem (8x2+18x+14)÷(2x+3).

Step 2 :We start by dividing the first term of the dividend 8x2 by the first term of the divisor 2x to find the first term of the quotient, which is 4x.

Step 3 :Next, we multiply the divisor 2x+3 by this term 4x and subtract the result from the dividend 8x2+18x+14.

Step 4 :The result of this subtraction is 6x+14.

Step 5 :We then repeat the process, dividing the first term of the new dividend 6x by the first term of the divisor 2x, which gives us the next term of the quotient, 3.

Step 6 :Multiplying the divisor 2x+3 by this term 3 and subtracting the result from the new dividend 6x+14 gives us the remainder, 5.

Step 7 :Since the degree of the remainder is less than the degree of the divisor, we stop here.

Step 8 :The final quotient is 4x+3 and the remainder is 5.

Step 9 :So, the solution to the polynomial division problem (8x2+18x+14)÷(2x+3) is the quotient 4x+3 and the remainder 5.
