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