Divide using synthetic division $$ ( 2x^{3}+18x^{2}+46x+30 ) \div ( 2x+2 ) $$
Answer
The synthetic division table is:
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}-2&2&18&46&30\\& & -4& -28& \color{black}{-36} \\ \hline &\color{blue}{2}&\color{blue}{14}&\color{blue}{18}&\color{orangered}{-6} \end{array} $$The solution is:
$$ \frac{ 2x^{3}+18x^{2}+46x+30 }{ x+2 } = \color{blue}{2x^{2}+14x+18} \color{red}{~-~} \frac{ \color{red}{ 6 } }{ x+2 } $$Explanation
Step 1 : Write down the coefficients of the dividend into division table. Put the zero from $ x + 2 = 0 $ ( $ x = \color{blue}{ -2 } $ ) at the left.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}\color{blue}{-2}&2&18&46&30\\& & & & \\ \hline &&&& \end{array} $$Step 1 : Bring down the leading coefficient to the bottom row.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}-2&\color{orangered}{ 2 }&18&46&30\\& & & & \\ \hline &\color{orangered}{2}&&& \end{array} $$Step 2 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ -2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 2 } = \color{blue}{ -4 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}\color{blue}{-2}&2&18&46&30\\& & \color{blue}{-4} & & \\ \hline &\color{blue}{2}&&& \end{array} $$Step 3 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 18 } + \color{orangered}{ \left( -4 \right) } = \color{orangered}{ 14 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}-2&2&\color{orangered}{ 18 }&46&30\\& & \color{orangered}{-4} & & \\ \hline &2&\color{orangered}{14}&& \end{array} $$Step 4 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ -2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 14 } = \color{blue}{ -28 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}\color{blue}{-2}&2&18&46&30\\& & -4& \color{blue}{-28} & \\ \hline &2&\color{blue}{14}&& \end{array} $$Step 5 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 46 } + \color{orangered}{ \left( -28 \right) } = \color{orangered}{ 18 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}-2&2&18&\color{orangered}{ 46 }&30\\& & -4& \color{orangered}{-28} & \\ \hline &2&14&\color{orangered}{18}& \end{array} $$Step 6 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ -2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 18 } = \color{blue}{ -36 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}\color{blue}{-2}&2&18&46&30\\& & -4& -28& \color{blue}{-36} \\ \hline &2&14&\color{blue}{18}& \end{array} $$Step 7 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 30 } + \color{orangered}{ \left( -36 \right) } = \color{orangered}{ -6 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrr}-2&2&18&46&\color{orangered}{ 30 }\\& & -4& -28& \color{orangered}{-36} \\ \hline &\color{blue}{2}&\color{blue}{14}&\color{blue}{18}&\color{orangered}{-6} \end{array} $$Bottom line represents the quotient $ \color{blue}{ 2x^{2}+14x+18 } $ with a remainder of $ \color{red}{ -6 } $.
