Question 612510
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Use polynomial long division to divide *[tex \LARGE x^3\ -\ 3x^2\ -\ x\ +\ 3] by *[tex \LARGE x\ +\ 1]


If you don't recall how to do polynomial long division, review the two pages of information starting at <a href="http://www.purplemath.com/modules/polydiv2.htm">Purple Math Polynomial Long Division</a>


Once you have completed the division, you will have a quadratic trinomial quotient.  Factor it.  The two integer coefficient factors will be the other two dimensions in terms of *[tex \LARGE x].


You are then given that the depth is 6, so that means *[tex \LARGE x\ +\ 1\ =\ 6].  Solve for *[tex \LARGE x], then substitute that value back into each of the linear factors you derived above.


Send me your answers and I'll let you know whether you did it correctly or not.

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi}\ +\ 1\ =\ 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
