Problem 1:


(x² - 6x + 10) ÷ (x - 1)

We perform polynomial long division:

```
x - 5
_________
x - 1 | x² - 6x + 10
-(x² - x)
---------
-5x + 10
-(-5x + 5)
---------
5
```

So:
- Quotient: x - 5
- Remainder: 5

Answer: $ x - 5 + \frac{5}{x - 1} $

---

Problem 2:


(x² + 5x + 6) ÷ (x + 4)

Divide:

```
x + 1
_________
x + 4 | x² + 5x + 6
-(x² + 4x)
---------
x + 6
-(x + 4)
-------
2
```

Quotient: x + 1, Remainder: 2

Answer: $ x + 1 + \frac{2}{x + 4} $

---

Problem 3:


(x² + 4x + 8) ÷ (x + 1)

```
x + 3
_________
x + 1 | x² + 4x + 8
-(x² + x)
---------
3x + 8
-(3x + 3)
-------
5
```

Quotient: x + 3, Remainder: 5

Answer: $ x + 3 + \frac{5}{x + 1} $

---

Problem 4:


(x² - 3x - 5) ÷ (x + 2)

```
x - 5
_________
x + 2 | x² - 3x - 5
-(x² + 2x)
---------
-5x - 5
-(-5x - 10)
---------
5
```

Quotient: x - 5, Remainder: 5

Answer: $ x - 5 + \frac{5}{x + 2} $

---

Problem 5:


(x² - 2x - 20) ÷ (x - 5)

```
x + 3
_________
x - 5 | x² - 2x - 20
-(x² - 5x)
---------
3x - 20
-(3x - 15)
-------
-5
```

Quotient: x + 3, Remainder: -5

Answer: $ x + 3 - \frac{5}{x - 5} $

---

Problem 6:


(4x² + 24x + 21) ÷ (x + 5)

```
4x + 4
_________
x + 5 | 4x² + 24x + 21
-(4x² + 20x)
---------
4x + 21
-(4x + 20)
-------
1
```

Quotient: 4x + 4, Remainder: 1

Answer: $ 4x + 4 + \frac{1}{x + 5} $

Problem 7:


(x² - x - 3) ÷ (x - 2)

```
x + 1
_________
x - 2 | x² - x - 3
-(x² - 2x)
---------
x - 3
-(x - 2)
-------
-1
```

Quotient: x + 1, Remainder: -1

Answer: $ x + 1 - \frac{1}{x - 2} $

---

Problem 8:


(4x² + 3x - 8) ÷ (x + 2)

```
4x - 5
_________
x + 2 | 4x² + 3x - 8
-(4x² + 8x)
---------
-5x - 8
-(-5x - 10)
---------
2
```

Quotient: 4x - 5, Remainder: 2

Answer: $ 4x - 5 + \frac{2}{x + 2} $

---

Problem 9:


(x² + 2x + 9) ÷ (x - 2)

```
x + 4
_________
x - 2 | x² + 2x + 9
-(x² - 2x)
---------
4x + 9
-(4x - 8)
-------
17
```

Quotient: x + 4, Remainder: 17

Answer: $ x + 4 + \frac{17}{x - 2} $

---

Problem 10:


(x² - x - 21) ÷ (x + 4)

```
x - 5
_________
x + 4 | x² - x - 21
-(x² + 4x)
---------
-5x - 21
-(-5x - 20)
---------
-1
```

Quotient: x - 5, Remainder: -1

Answer: $ x - 5 - \frac{1}{x + 4} $
