%2842x%5E2%2B0x-33%29%2F%287%28x%2B1%29%29

%281%2F7%29%28%2842x%5E2%2B0x-33%29%2F%28x%2B1%29%29


Next, just perform the synthetic division process, and then multiply the resulting quotient by 1%2F7. That is, if you really want to do this with SYNTHETIC division; otherwise maybe polynomial division could be chosen instead. 

-1  |   42    0    -33
    |
    |        -42   42   
    |______________________________
       42    -42   9

Quotient from there is 42x-42%2B9%2F%28x%2B1%29

Multiply the quotient by 1%2F7:

highlight%286x-6%2B9%2F%287x%2B7%29%29.
