#color(white)(x+7 " )")underline(" " x^(color(white)(2)) -9color(white)(000000))#
#x+7 " )" " " x^2-2x-30#
#color(white)(x+7 " )" " ") underline(x^2+7x)#
#color(white)(x+7 " )" " " x^2 ) -9x-30#
#color(white)(x+7 " )" " " x^2 ) -9x-63#
#color(white)(x+7 " )" " " x^2 ) bar(color(white)(-9x+.)33color(white)(0))#
