To determine if a polynomial is divisible by a divisor using long division, we need to divide the polynomial by the divisor and check if there is a remainder.
Let's start with the first polynomial: 3x^2 - 6x + 9.
_______________________
x + 3 | 3x^2 - 6x + 9
We divide the leading term of the polynomial (3x^2) by the leading term of the divisor (x): 3x^2 รท x = 3x. We write this result above the line:
3x
_______________________
x + 3 | 3x^2 - 6x + 9
Now, we multiply the divisor (x + 3) by the result we obtained (3x) and write the result below the polynomial:
3x
_______________________
x + 3 | 3x^2 - 6x + 9
3x^2 + 9x
Next, we subtract this result from the original polynomial:
3x
_______________________
x + 3 | 3x^2 - 6x + 9
3x^2 + 9x
---------------
- 15x + 9
Now, we bring down the next term of the original polynomial (-15x) and continue the division:
3x - 5
_______________________
x + 3 | 3x^2 - 6x + 9
3x^2 + 9x
---------------
- 15x + 9
- 15x - 45
---------------
54
At this point, we have completed the long division, and we are left with a remainder of 54.
Therefore, the polynomial 3x^2 - 6x + 9 is not divisible by the divisor x + 3.
Now, let's move on to the second polynomial: x^3 - 3x^2 - 13x + 15.
_______________________
x + 3 | x^3 - 3x^2 - 13x + 15
We proceed with the long division in the same way as before, and after completing the division, if there is no remainder, then the polynomial is divisible by the divisor.
Similarly, we can continue to perform long division for the remaining polynomials:
5x^2 + 7x - 12
x^3 - 5x^2 + 10x - 15
After completing the long division for each polynomial, if there is no remainder, then the polynomial is divisible by the divisor x + 3.
