To divide polynomials using long division, follow these steps:
1. Write the dividend (35b^2 - 34b - 21) and divisor (5b - 7) in long division format:
____________________
5b - 7 | 35b^2 - 34b - 21
2. Divide the first term of the dividend (35b^2) by the first term of the divisor (5b), which is 7b. Write this quotient above the division bar:
7b
____________________
5b - 7 | 35b^2 - 34b - 21
3. Multiply the divisor (5b - 7) by the quotient (7b) and write the result below the dividend, aligned with like terms:
7b
____________________
5b - 7 | 35b^2 - 34b - 21
-(35b^2 - 49b)
4. Subtract the result obtained from step 3 from the dividend:
7b
____________________
5b - 7 | 35b^2 - 34b - 21
-(35b^2 - 49b)
_________________
15b - 21
5. Bring down the next term from the dividend (-21) and write it next to the result:
7b + 3
____________________
5b - 7 | 35b^2 - 34b - 21
-(35b^2 - 49b)
_________________
15b - 21
-(15b - 21)
_____________________________
0
6. Since the quotient of the division is 7b + 3 and the remainder is 0, the final result is:
Quotient: 7b + 3
Remainder: 0
To check our answer, we can multiply the divisor (5b - 7) by the quotient (7b + 3) and see if we obtain the original dividend:
(5b - 7)(7b + 3) = 35b^2 + 15b - 49b - 21 = 35b^2 - 34b - 21
The result obtained matches the original dividend, confirming that our division is correct.

To check our answer, we can multiply the divisor (5b - 7) by the quotient (7b + 3) and see if we obtain the original dividend:
(5b - 7)(7b + 3) = 35b^2 + 15b - 49b - 21 = 35b^2 - 34b - 21

Apologies for the confusion. The answer to the division is:
Quotient: 7b + 3
Remainder: 0
So the division of the polynomial (35b^2 - 34b - 21) by (5b - 7) is equal to 7b + 3, with no remainder.
Quotient: 7b + 3
