Open-Ended Write a polynomial division that has a quotient of x + 3 and a remainder of 2.
\([(x+3)(x+5)+2] \div(x+5)=x+3\;\;Remainder\;2\)
You can expand the dividend polynomial if you want.
Here's another way using the Remainder Theorem
(-3)^2 + 3(-3) + 2 = 2
So....our polynomial is
x^2 + 3x + 2
Thanks Chris, yes, that is another good way :)
