The area A (in square feet) of the rectangular shed is given by 6x³+7x²+11x+21.And one side of the rectangular is 2x+3. Use polynomial long division to find an expression for the length (in feet) of the shed.
Answer:
3x² - x +7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the long division method:
We have :
Divisor : 6x³+7x²+11x+21
Dividend : 2x+3
Quotient : the length (in feet) of the shed = ???
Hence, we solve below
6x³+7x²+11x+21 ÷ 2x + 3
3x² -x + 7
______________________
2x+3 l 6x³+7x²+11x+21
6x³+9x²
__________
-2x²+11x
-2x²-3x
__________
14x+21
14x+21
_______
0
Therefore, an expression for the length (in feet) of the shed is 3x² - x +7
