To perform long division on the polynomial \( (8x^3 + 6x^2 - 13 + 3) \) by \( (4x - 3) \), we first rewrite the polynomial:
\[ P(x) = 8x^3 + 6x^2 - 10 \]
Now, we'll divide \( P(x) \) by \( 4x - 3 \).
Step 1: Divide the leading terms
Divide the leading term of the dividend \( 8x^3 \) by the leading term of the divisor \( 4x \):
\[ \frac{8x^3}{4x} = 2x^2 \]
Step 2: Multiply and subtract
Next, multiply \( 2x^2 \) by the entire divisor:
\[ 2x^2(4x - 3) = 8x^3 - 6x^2 \]
Now, subtract this from the polynomial:
\[ (8x^3 + 6x^2 - 10) - (8x^3 - 6x^2) = 6x^2 + 6x^2 - 10 = 12x^2 - 10 \]
Step 3: Repeat the process
Now, take \( 12x^2 \) and divide it by \( 4x \):
\[ \frac{12x^2}{4x} = 3x \]
Multiply \( 3x \) by the divisor:
\[ 3x(4x - 3) = 12x^2 - 9x \]
Now, subtract:
\[ (12x^2 - 10) - (12x^2 - 9x) = -10 + 9x = 9x - 10 \]
Step 4: Repeat again
Now divide \( 9x \) by \( 4x \):
\[ \frac{9x}{4x} = \frac{9}{4} \]
Multiply by the divisor:
\[ \frac{9}{4}(4x - 3) = 9x - \frac{27}{4} \]
Subtract:
\[ (9x - 10) - (9x - \frac{27}{4}) = -10 + \frac{27}{4} = -\frac{40}{4} + \frac{27}{4} = -\frac{13}{4} \]
Final Result
So, we have:
\[ P(x) = (4x - 3)(2x^2 + 3x + \frac{9}{4}) - \frac{13}{4} \]
Thus, the quotient is:
\[ 2x^2 + 3x + \frac{9}{4} \]
and the remainder is \(-\frac{13}{4}\).
Now, looking at the options provided, we can identify that none of the options match our result directly.
Please cross-check the options because it seems that either I misunderstood how the options are given or the options might be incorrect. Nonetheless, from our calculations, the quotient is \( 2x^2 + 3x + \frac{9}{4} \) with a remainder of \(-\frac{13}{4}\).
