Use long division to divide. \(\left(x^{3}-27\right) \div(x-3)\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The result of the division \((x^{3} - 27) \div (x - 3)\) is \(x^{2} + 3x + 9\).

Step by step solution

01

Set up long division

Set it up the same way long division would be set up: divisor \((x - 3)\) on the left, dividend \((x^{3} - 27)\) on the right.
02

Divide the leading terms

Divide the first term of the dividend (\(x^{3}\)) by the first term of the divisor (\(x\)). Write the result (\(x^{2}\)) above the division bar.
03

Multiply and Subtract

Multiply the divisor \((x-3)\) by the result found in step 2 (\(x^{2}\)), write the result under the dividend and subtract it from the dividend. The result should be \(0x^{2} + 3x^{2} = 3x^{2}\).
04

Bring Down the Next Term

There are no more terms to bring down, so bring down the equivalent of zero or nothing. Then, divide the leading term of what's left in the dividend \(3x^{2}\) with the leading term in the divisor (\(x\)), giving a result of \(3x\). Write this above the bar.
05

Repeat steps 3 and 4

Multiply the divisor \((x-3)\) by the result found at step 4 (\(3x\)). Subtract this from what's left of the dividend. The end result is 0, which means that the division process is complete without any remainders.

A manufacturer wants to enlarge an existing manufacturing facility such that the total floor area is 1.5 times that of the current facility. The floor area of the current facility is rectangular and measures 250 feet by 160 feet. The manufacturer wants to increase each dimension by the same amount. (a) Write a function that represents the new floor \(\operatorname{area} A\). (b) Find the dimensions of the new floor. (c) Another alternative is to increase the current floor's length by an amount that is twice an increase in the floor's width. The total floor area is 1.5 times that of the current facility. Repeat parts (a) and (b) using these criteria.
