Factor and then kill the like terms!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

show please

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

wait, it cannot be factored. so it means that there will be a remained as well

myininaya (myininaya):

x^3-x^2-x+1 ------------------------ x+1 | 1x^4 +0x^3 -2x^2 +0x+3 -(1x^4 +1x^3) --------------- -1x^3-2x^2+0x+3 -(-1x^3-x^2) ------------------ -1x^2+0x+3 -(-1x^2-x) --------------- x+3 -(x+1) -------- 2 ----------------------------long division way ends--------- 1x^4+0x^3-2x^2+0x+ 3 -1 | 1 0 -2 0 3 | -1 1 1 -1 ================= 1 -1 -1 1 | 2 1x^3-1x^2-1x+1+2/(x+1) ----------------------------synthetic division way ends---------

myininaya (myininaya):
