Yes. Exactly.
(x^2 -7x -8) / (x+1)
= x + (-8x -8)/(x+1)
= x -8
The area of a parallelogram is represented by x^2-7x-8 and its height is represented by x+1, what would the base of the parallelogram be?
I am not sure how to do this. Would you divide the area by the height?
would it be x-8
Thank you for your help
