Answer

$3x-6+\frac{2}{x}-\frac{2}{5x^2}$.

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $=(15x^3-30x^2+10x-2)\div (5x^2)$ Rewrite in vertical format. $=\frac{15x^3-30x^2+10x-2}{5x^2}$ Divide each term of the polynomial by the monomial. $=\frac{15x^3}{5x^2}-\frac{30x^2}{5x^2}+\frac{10x}{5x^2}-\frac{2}{5x^2}$ Simplify (Cancel common terms). $=3x-6+\frac{2}{x}-\frac{2}{5x^2}$.
