What if you were to test the "root" as being -17? The value for your cubic polynomial at x=-17 will be what you are looking for.


Also, with synthetic division:
-17   |   1   -1   -226    1410
      |
      |      -17   306     -1360    
      |___________________________
          1  -18   80      50

Remainder is 50.
