                 -5x - 1
               __________________________
3x^2 + 2x + 1 | -15x^3 - 13x^2 - 7x - 1
              -(-15x^3 - 10x^2 - 5x)
              --------------------------
                         -3x^2 + 2x - 1
                      - (-3x^2 + 2x - 1) 
                        ----------------
                                      0

%28-15x%5E3-13x%5E2-7x-1%29%2F%283x%5E2%2B2x%2B1%29=-%285x%2B1%29
