Two ways to do this.  First way:  Factor the trinomial.  If one of the factors is *[tex \LARGE x\ +\ 7], (and it is), the other factor is the quotient.


Second way:  Use polynomial long division.


See &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.purplemath.com/modules/polydiv2.htm&quot;&gt;Purple Math Polynomial Long Division&lt;/a&gt; for a very good refresher on Polynomial Long Division

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