To solve the problem of dividing \( 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94 \) by \( x + 3 \) using long division, we proceed as follows:
Step 1: Set up the long division
_____________________
x + 3 | 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94
Step 2: Divide the leading term of the dividend by the leading term of the divisor
The leading term of the dividend is \( 4x^3 \) and the leading term of the divisor is \( x \).
\[ \frac{4x^3}{x} = 4x^2 \]
We will write \( 4x^2 \) above the long division line:
4x^2
_____________________
x + 3 | 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94
Step 3: Multiply the entire divisor by this term and subtract
Now we multiply \( 4x^2 \) by \( x + 3 \):
\[ 4x^2(x + 3) = 4x^3 + 12x^2 \]
Now, we subtract this result from the original polynomial:
4x^2
_____________________
x + 3 | 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94
- (4x^3 + 12x^2)
______________________
-9x^2 - 30x - 94
Step 4: Repeat the process for the new polynomial
Now take the new leading term \(-9x^2\) and divide it by the leading term of the divisor \(x\):
\[ \frac{-9x^2}{x} = -9x \]
Write \(-9x\) above the division line:
4x^2 - 9x
_____________________
x + 3 | 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94
- (4x^3 + 12x^2)
______________________
-9x^2 - 30x - 94
- (-9x^2 - 27x)
______________________
-3x - 94
Step 5: Do it again for \(-3x\)
Take the new leading term \(-3x\) and divide it by \(x\).
\[ \frac{-3x}{x} = -3 \]
Write \(-3\) above the division line:
4x^2 - 9x - 3
______________________
x + 3 | 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94
- (4x^3 + 12x^2)
______________________
-9x^2 - 30x - 94
- (-9x^2 - 27x)
______________________
-3x - 94
- (-3x - 9)
______________________
-85
Step 6: Conclusion
The final result of performing the long division is:
\[ \text{Answer: } 4x^2 - 9x - 3 \quad \text{with a remainder of } -85. \]
So, the result when dividing \( 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 30x - 94 \) by \( x + 3 \) is
\[ 4x^2 - 9x - 3 \quad \text{R} -85 \]
