Step-by-step explanation:

(-2x³ - 4x²+ 9x² + 18x - 19x - 38 + 40)

÷ (x + 2)

[-2x²(x+2) + 9x(x+2) - 19(x+2) + 40]

÷ (x+2)

-2x² + 9x - 19 + 40/(x+2)

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
