Answer

(a) The quotient is $~~x^3+2x^2+2~~$ and the remainder is $~~9$ (b) The quotient is $~~x^3+2x^2+\frac{1}{2}~~$ and the remainder is $~~\frac{15}{2}$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can use synthetic division to find the quotient and remainder. The details of the synthetic division are given below. The quotient is $~~x^3+2x^2+2~~$ and the remainder is $~~9$ (b) We can use long division to find the quotient and remainder. The details of the long division are given below. The quotient is $~~x^3+2x^2+\frac{1}{2}~~$ and the remainder is $~~\frac{15}{2}$
