I don't like dividing polynomials so I'm going to set x=1 and try them out.

(1-2-14+3)/4 = -3

Of the choices, only D gives -3 when x=1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's as much test-taking as math.  If we were to divide


             x^2 - 5x + 1
          -------------------------------
x + 3 |   x^3 - 2x^2 - 14x + 3
             x^3 + 3x^2
                      -5x^2 - 14x
                       5x^2 + 15x
                                      x + 3 
                                      x + 3

More work, still choice D
