Remainder theorem:
$P(n)=3n^3-5n^2-4n-2$ is divided by $(n-2)$,
the remainder is $P(2).$
$P(2)=$
$2(2^3)-5(2^2) -4(2) -2=-6.$
$P(n)$ is divisible by $(n-2)$ if $(n-2)|(-6).$

$$3n^3-5n^2-4n-2=$$
$$3n^3-6n^2+n^2-2n-2n+4-6=$$
$$(n-2)(3n^2+n-2)-6$$
it is divisible if $n-2$ divise $6$.

$$frac{3n^3-5n^2-4n-22}{n-2}=3n^2+n-2-frac6{n-2}$$
This is an integer iff $n-2mid 6$.
Take of two from twotwo in numerator.
