put this solution on YOUR website!x^2 - 6x - 27 divided by x + 3
divide x into x^2 to get x ***** first part of your answer.
multiply x * (x+3) to get x^2 + 3x
subtract x^2 + 3x from x^2 - 6x to get -9x
carry down the -27 to get -9x - 27
divide x into -9x to get -9 ***** second part of your answer.
multiply -9 * (x+3) to get -9x - 27
subtract -9x - 27 from -9x - 27 to get 0.
your answer is:
x^2 - 6x - 27 divided by x + 3 = x - 9
This means that:
(x+3) * (x-9) = x^2 - 6x - 27
multiplying those factors out gets:
x^2 - 9x + 3x - 27 which becomes x^2 - 6x - 27 which is correct.
your answer is x - 9
