Let's say the point is C, so C partitions AB into two pieces, where AC is at a ratio of 3 and CB is at a ratio of 7, thus 3:7,
How do you divide (n^2-n-29)/(n-6) ??

Answer:
see attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Polynomial long division is done the way any long division is done. Find a "partial quotient", subtract from the dividend the product of that partial quotient and the divisor. The result is a new dividend. Repeat until the degree of the dividend is less than that of the divisor.
__
In the attached, the "Hints" show you how the partial quotient is found, and they show you how the product of the partial quotient and divisor is found.
The partial quotient term is simply the ratio of the highest degree terms of dividend and divisor. (Unlike numerical long division, there is no guessing.)
__
The remainder is the dividend of lower degree than the divisor. As in numerical long division, the full quotient expresses the remainder over the divisor.
For example, 5 ÷ 3 = 1 r 2 = 1 + 2/3.
Your full quotient is (n+5) +1/(n-6).
