The quotient is =(x+8)=(x+8) and the remainder is =-(8x+24)=(8x+24)

Explanation:

Perform the long division

color(white)(aaaa)aaaax^3+8x^2-3x+16x3+8x23x+16color(white)(aaaa)aaaa|x^2+5x2+5

color(white)(aaaa)aaaax^3+0x^2+5xx3+0x2+5xcolor(white)(aaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaa|x+8x+8

color(white)(aaaaa)aaaaa0+8x^2-8x+160+8x28x+16

color(white)(aaaaaaa)aaaaaaa+8x^2+0x+40+8x2+0x+40

color(white)(aaaaaaaaa)aaaaaaaaa+0-8x-24+08x24

Therefore,

(x^3+8x^2-3x+16)/(x^2+5)=(x+8)-(8x+24)/(x^2+5)x3+8x23x+16x2+5=(x+8)8x+24x2+5

The quotient is =(x+8)=(x+8) and the remainder is =-(8x+24)=(8x+24)
