Question 225327: x^2+9x+14 divided by x+2
Answer by LtAurora(115)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Synthetic division time!
Drop the 1 below the line. Then multiply it by -2 to give us -2. Add 9 and -2 to give us 7. Multiply 7 by -2 to give us -14. Add -14 and 14 to give us 0.
(disregard any periods, I was trying to get the lines to line up better)
-2|1 9 14
....|..-2 -14
....----------
......1. 7. 0
So we're left with (x+7).
