gollark: It looks mostly fine, but it's hard to tell sideways.

gollark: It wants something in terms of p and q, so just simplify it a bit.

gollark: Although I don't know why you can't long-divide it, p and q are just constants for the purposes of that.

gollark: That lets you work out a/b/c/d, which you can substitute back into (x-1)(ax^3+bx^2+cx+d).

gollark: So:2 = a (x^4 terms)p = b - a (x^3 terms)-6 = c - b (x^2 terms)q = d - c (x terms)6 = -d (constant terms)
