Albert thought of a number, added 5, multiplied the result by 2, took away 6 and then divided by 2 to give an answer of 8

To find Albert's original number we have to work backwards. So everything albert did we have to do the reverse.

Starting with 8:

8*2 = 16 + 6 = 22/2 = 11- 5 = 6

Now, lets check it and start from the beginning with this new number (6), and follow everything Albert did and we will get 8.

6+5= 11*2= 22-6 = 16/2 = 8

The answer is 6 ....you just have to do the steps backwards and it will result faster.
6+5=11
11*2=22
22-6=16
16/2=8

<em>Divide, polynomial, quotient, divisor, dividend, rest </em>

For this case, we must find the quotient by dividing the polynomial $(5x ^ 4-3x ^ 2 + 4)\ by\ (x + 1)$ . We must build a quotient that, when multiplied by the divisor, eliminates the terms of the dividend until it reaches the rest, as shown in the attached figure. At the end of the division, to verify we must bear in mind that:
