A Multiplying and Dividing Polynomials problem

Hey, could someone give me the correct work and answer for this problem?

Hi SlowlyFading

That is just an expression, not a whole problem. What do you need to do with that expression? Graph it? Find its roots?

Hi;

The only thing you can do with that is simplify it unless you want something more.

21 divided by 7 equals 3.

14 divided by 7 is 2. You leave the x^3 and the x alone. So

Hi;

You are welcome but are you able to do one on your own?

No, not really. Barely. Hardly.
