Hi,



          -2x^2 + (-5x) -   5

        __________________________

3x - 5 | -6x^3    -5x^2  +10x  +25

      -  (-6x^3 +  10x^2)

       ---------------

                -15x^2 +  10x

             - (-15x^2 +  25x))

                --------------

                         -15x + 25

                      - (-15x + 25)

                          --------
