You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Using synthetic division we get,

x+2| x^5 +0x^4 + 0x^3 +0x^2 +0x + 32
 -2| 1    0      0     0     0    32
   | -    -2     4     -8    16  -32
   ---------------------------------
     1    -2     4     -8    16   0
   ---------------------------------




So we get,
%28x%5E5%2B32%29=%28x%2B2%29%28x%5E4-2%2Ax%5E3%2B4x%5E2-8x%2B16%29
