SOLUTION: Solve: (6x^1000 -17x^562 + 12x + 26)/( x + 1)
I know I have to use a theorem or two, I am just confused on what theorem and how to use it.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve: (6x^1000 -17x^562 + 12x + 26)/( x + 1)
-------
f(-1) = 6*1 - 17(1) + 12(-1) + 26 = 3
-----
That tells you the remainder after division is 3
------------------
It also tells you that x = -1 is not a root of the numerator.
