        2u^2 + u - 1
       __________________________
u - 7 | 2u^3 - 13u^2 - 8u +  7
      -(2u^3 - 14u^2)
       -------------------
                 u^2 - 8u
              - (u^2 - 7u)
                --------------
                        -u + 7 
                      -(-u + 7)
                       ---------
                             0
