Hi. I don't understand polynomial long division. Could someone help me? I would really appreciate it. Thanks again. Rae
\n" ); document.write( "-4x^3 + 24x^2 - 24x + 4 by x^2 -5x + 1
\n" ); document.write( "....
\n" ); document.write( "........................-4x.............4
\n" ); document.write( "....x^2-5x+1|..-4x^3...24x^2...-24x...4
\n" ); document.write( ".......................-4x^3...20x^2...-4x
\n" ); document.write( "....................................4x^2....-20x
\n" ); document.write( "....................................4x^2....-20x...4
\n" ); document.write( "................................................. 0......0
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "dividend: -4x^3+24x^2-24x+4
\n" ); document.write( "divisor: x^2-5x+1
\n" ); document.write( "quotient: -4x+4
\n" ); document.write( "remainder:0
\n" ); document.write( "dividend=quotient*divisor+remainder
\n" ); document.write( "note: write dividend and divisor in descending order. Insert zeros for missing powers.
\n" ); document.write( "Algebraic long division is the same method used for arithmetic long division you learned in the 4th grade or earlier.
