You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "          2 | 4  -1  -7  18  0\r\n" );
document.write( "            |   __ 8__14__14__64__   \r\n" );
document.write( " \r\n" );
document.write( "              4   7   7  32   64     \r\n" );
document.write( "                                     
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So you should get \"4x%5E3%2B7x%5E2%2B7x%2B32%2B64%2F%28x+-+2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "You subtracted 18 and 14, instead of adding, and theres a 0 thats in the place of ax^0. So you missed one step. But other than that you got it. You can check these by going to this site:
