About LinkBacksI divided (-4x^3 + x^2 - 4)/(x - 1) and got a totally different answer on three attempts than the book.
Here is the right answer:
-4x^2 - 3x - 3 remainder -7
How can this be?
Can you show me step by step why the above answer is correct?

Hello,
My method may not be like yours, but I can't manage to change it ~~Originally Posted by magentarita
and x-1.
First, I see the first term of the polynomial -4x^3 and the first term of x-1 : x.
.
So I'll write :
And so on... :
(-4x^2-3x)-3x-4=(x-1)(-4x^2-3x)-3(x-1)-3-4)
If you want to know where your mistake(s) is/are, just show your work ^^
