Question 183081
divide this polynomial?

(3x^3-9x-3)/(3x-3)
----------------------
Common Factor:

[3(x^3-3x-1)] / [3(x-1)]

Cancel the common factor of "3":

[x^3- 3x -1] / [x-1]

------------------------
Use synthetic division:

1)....1....0....-3....-1
.......1....1....-2...|-3

Quotient: x^2+x-2
Remainder: -3
