I don't know the latex symbol to get long division symbols but hopefully someone can figure this out for me.
I've been doing pretty good until I came across this problem:
(x^3 + 1 + 2x) / (x^5 + 3x + 2)
Answer is:
[hide]x^2 - 2 + [(-x^2 + 7x + 4) / (x^3 + 2x + 1)][/hide]
I was going to go in depth about this, however, I don't see the latex symbol that closely looks like the square root symbol for division....
It's very obvious to me that I need long division. I just didn't know how to solve the problem, that's all. I don't understand the long division processes used in this.
Long division in plain numbers is somewhat easy, however, this polynomial division isn't. I was wondering if someone could give me detailed steps on how to take on this problem.
