Question 581509: I am a freshman taking algebra and last week we were learning about dividing polynomials. I tried to get all the help I could from the teacher and I still don't understand it plus I have a test next week that I need to pass. So I decided to take the extra time this weekend to try and get some help. I would very much appreciate it if you would help me. Here is the math problem:
(-21-4p+3p squared)divided by (3+p)
Thank you,

___________
3+p/-21-4p+3p^2
Lets rewrite this whole thing so it makes more since to me.
__________
p+3/3p^2-4p-21
divide by p
_3p_-13______
p+3/3p^2-4p-21
-(3p^2+9p)
-13p-21
-(-13p-39)
+18
answer=3p-13 R+18
I hope that helps
