Use the long division method to find the result when 3x³ + 11x² - 12x - 19 isdivided by 3x + 2. If there is a remainder, express the result in the formr(x)q(x) + b(z)

Answer :

Given two polynomials f(x) and g(x), the division between them can be represented by:

[tex]\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=q(x)+\frac{r(x)}{g(x)}[/tex]

Where q(x) is the quotient and r(x) is the remainder. From the problem, we identify:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=3x^3+11x^2-12x-19 \\ \\ g(x)=3x+2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, using the long division method:

Finally:

[tex]\begin{gathered} r(x)=-7 \\ q(x)=x^2+3x-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

And the result is:

[tex]\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=x^2+3x-6-\frac{7}{3x+2}[/tex]
