Divide using synthetic division $$ ( x^{5}+x^{3}-5 ) \div ( x-2 ) $$
Answer
The synthetic division table is:
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & 2& 4& 10& 20& \color{black}{40} \\ \hline &\color{blue}{1}&\color{blue}{2}&\color{blue}{5}&\color{blue}{10}&\color{blue}{20}&\color{orangered}{35} \end{array} $$The solution is:
$$ \frac{ x^{5}+x^{3}-5 }{ x-2 } = \color{blue}{x^{4}+2x^{3}+5x^{2}+10x+20} ~+~ \frac{ \color{red}{ 35 } }{ x-2 } $$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.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}\color{blue}{2}&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & & & & & \\ \hline &&&&&& \end{array} $$Step 1 : Bring down the leading coefficient to the bottom row.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&\color{orangered}{ 1 }&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & & & & & \\ \hline &\color{orangered}{1}&&&&& \end{array} $$Step 2 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 1 } = \color{blue}{ 2 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}\color{blue}{2}&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & \color{blue}{2} & & & & \\ \hline &\color{blue}{1}&&&&& \end{array} $$Step 3 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 0 } + \color{orangered}{ 2 } = \color{orangered}{ 2 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&1&\color{orangered}{ 0 }&1&0&0&-5\\& & \color{orangered}{2} & & & & \\ \hline &1&\color{orangered}{2}&&&& \end{array} $$Step 4 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 2 } = \color{blue}{ 4 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}\color{blue}{2}&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & 2& \color{blue}{4} & & & \\ \hline &1&\color{blue}{2}&&&& \end{array} $$Step 5 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 1 } + \color{orangered}{ 4 } = \color{orangered}{ 5 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&1&0&\color{orangered}{ 1 }&0&0&-5\\& & 2& \color{orangered}{4} & & & \\ \hline &1&2&\color{orangered}{5}&&& \end{array} $$Step 6 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 5 } = \color{blue}{ 10 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}\color{blue}{2}&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & 2& 4& \color{blue}{10} & & \\ \hline &1&2&\color{blue}{5}&&& \end{array} $$Step 7 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 0 } + \color{orangered}{ 10 } = \color{orangered}{ 10 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&1&0&1&\color{orangered}{ 0 }&0&-5\\& & 2& 4& \color{orangered}{10} & & \\ \hline &1&2&5&\color{orangered}{10}&& \end{array} $$Step 8 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 10 } = \color{blue}{ 20 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}\color{blue}{2}&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & 2& 4& 10& \color{blue}{20} & \\ \hline &1&2&5&\color{blue}{10}&& \end{array} $$Step 9 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ 0 } + \color{orangered}{ 20 } = \color{orangered}{ 20 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&1&0&1&0&\color{orangered}{ 0 }&-5\\& & 2& 4& 10& \color{orangered}{20} & \\ \hline &1&2&5&10&\color{orangered}{20}& \end{array} $$Step 10 : Multiply by the number on the left, and carry the result into the next column: $ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \color{blue}{ 20 } = \color{blue}{ 40 } $.
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}\color{blue}{2}&1&0&1&0&0&-5\\& & 2& 4& 10& 20& \color{blue}{40} \\ \hline &1&2&5&10&\color{blue}{20}& \end{array} $$Step 11 : Add down last column: $ \color{orangered}{ -5 } + \color{orangered}{ 40 } = \color{orangered}{ 35 } $
$$ \begin{array}{c|rrrrrr}2&1&0&1&0&0&\color{orangered}{ -5 }\\& & 2& 4& 10& 20& \color{orangered}{40} \\ \hline &\color{blue}{1}&\color{blue}{2}&\color{blue}{5}&\color{blue}{10}&\color{blue}{20}&\color{orangered}{35} \end{array} $$Bottom line represents the quotient $ \color{blue}{ x^{4}+2x^{3}+5x^{2}+10x+20 } $ with a remainder of $ \color{red}{ 35 } $.
