Question

Find the remainder and quotient when $x^3+x^2$ - 9x - 9 is divided by (x + 1)

• A. Quotient = $x^2$ - 9 Remainder = 0
• B. Quotient = $x^2$ - 9 Remainder = 9
• C. Quotient = $4x^2$ + 5 Remainder = 5
• D. Quotient = $9x^2$ + 4 Remainder = 8

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Quotient = $x^2$ - 9

Remainder = 0

Use long division

The remainder = 0

Quotient = $x^2$ - 9
