(2x^2+x-6)=(x+2)(2x-3)+(0)

"Remainder"=0

Explanation:

Using synthetic division :

diamond(2x^2+x-6)div(x+2)

We have , p(x)=2x^2+x-6 and "divisor :"x=-2

We take ,coefficients of p(x) to 2,1, -6

-2 | 2color(white)(.......)1color(white)(..)-6
ulcolor(white)(....)| ul(0color(white)( ...)-4color(white)(.......)6
color(white)(......)2color(white)(...)-3color(white)(.......)color(violet)(ul|0|
We can see that , quotient polynomial :

q(x)=2x-3 and"the Remainder"=0

Hence ,

(2x^2+x-6)=(x+2)(2x-3)+(0)
