Set up long division: Set up the long division. We will use polynomial long division to divide $4x^3 - 14x^2 - 7x - 4$ by $x - 4$.Divide first term of dividend: Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor. Divide $4x^3$ by $x$ to get $4x^2$. Write $4x^2$ above the dividend.Multiply divisor and subtract: Multiply the divisor by $4x^2$ and subtract from the dividend. $4x^2 \cdot (x - 4) = 4x^3 - 16x^2$. Subtract this from the dividend to get a new dividend of $-2x^2 - 7x - 4$.Divide first term of new dividend: Divide the first term of the new dividend by the first term of the divisor. Divide $-2x^2$ by $x$ to get $-2x$. Write $-2x$ above the dividend next to $4x^2$.Multiply divisor and subtract: Multiply the divisor by $-2x$ and subtract from the new dividend. $-2x \cdot (x - 4) = -2x^2 + 8x$. Subtract this from the new dividend to get a new dividend of $-15x - 4$.Divide first term of new dividend: Divide the first term of the new dividend by the first term of the divisor. Divide $-15x$ by $x$ to get $-15$. Write $-15$ above the dividend next to $-2x$.Multiply divisor and subtract: Multiply the divisor by $-15$ and subtract from the new dividend. $-15 \cdot (x - 4) = -15x + 60$. Subtract this from the new dividend to get a new dividend of $-64$.Check for further division: Since $-64$ is a constant and the divisor is linear, we cannot divide further. The remainder is $-64$. The division process is complete, and the remainder is $-64$.
