23. \\(\\dfrac{4p^4 - 17p^2 + 14p - 3}{2p - 3}\\)

Question

  1. \\(\dfrac{4p^4 - 17p^2 + 14p - 3}{2p - 3}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Divide the leading term

Divide the leading term of the numerator \(4p^4\) by the leading term of the denominator \(2p\) to get \(2p^3\). Multiply the denominator \(2p - 3\) by \(2p^3\) to get \(4p^4 - 6p^3\). Subtract this from the numerator:
\[

$$\begin{align*} &(4p^4 - 17p^2 + 14p - 3) - (4p^4 - 6p^3)\\ =& 6p^3 - 17p^2 + 14p - 3 \end{align*}$$

\]

Step2: Divide the new leading term

Divide the leading term \(6p^3\) by \(2p\) to get \(3p^2\). Multiply the denominator by \(3p^2\) to get \(6p^3 - 9p^2\). Subtract this from the previous result:
\[

$$\begin{align*} &(6p^3 - 17p^2 + 14p - 3) - (6p^3 - 9p^2)\\ =& -8p^2 + 14p - 3 \end{align*}$$

\]

Step3: Divide the new leading term

Divide the leading term \(-8p^2\) by \(2p\) to get \(-4p\). Multiply the denominator by \(-4p\) to get \(-8p^2 + 12p\). Subtract this from the previous result:
\[

$$\begin{align*} &(-8p^2 + 14p - 3) - (-8p^2 + 12p)\\ =& 2p - 3 \end{align*}$$

\]

Step4: Divide the new leading term

Divide the leading term \(2p\) by \(2p\) to get \(1\). Multiply the denominator by \(1\) to get \(2p - 3\). Subtract this from the previous result:
\[

$$\begin{align*} &(2p - 3) - (2p - 3)\\ =& 0 \end{align*}$$

\]

Step5: Combine the results

The quotient is the sum of the terms we found: \(2p^3 + 3p^2 - 4p + 1\) and the remainder is \(0\).

Answer:

\(2p^3 + 3p^2 - 4p + 1\)
