divide by long division
2x^2-9x^2+15 by 2x-5

assuming the above is 2x^2-9x+15, if not please repost
dividing into other polynomials is done in a similar fashion
...............x-2
2x-5 --> 2x^2-9x+15
.........2x^2-5x
.............-4x+15
.............-4x+10
..................5
x - 2 + (x - 2)/(2x - 5) is answer
check:
(2x - 5)(x - 2 + 5/(2x - 5))
(2x - 5)x - (2x - 5)2 + (2x - 5)5/(2x - 5)
2x^2 - 5x - 4x + 10 + 5
2x^2 - 9x + 15, yes
