Steps

Step 1 :First, we set up the synthetic division with 2 as the divisor and the coefficients of 9x65x4+5x2+6 as the dividend.

Step 2 :\multicolumn1r|29050506\multicolumn1r|183662124258516\cline289183162129258\multicolumn1|r522

Step 3 :Thus, we find that 9x65x4+5x2+6=(x2)(9x5+18x4+31x3+62x2+129x+258)+522.

Step 4 :The quotient is 9x5+18x4+31x3+62x2+129x+258 and the remainder is 522.
