Answer:

a = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

given x = - 1 is a zero then f(- 1) = 0 , that is

a(- 1)³ - (- 1)² - 1 + 4 = 0

- a - 1 - 1 + 4 = 0

- a + 2 = 0 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

- a = - 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

a = 2

a) for all values of x that are in the domains of f and g.

b) for all values of x that are in the domains of f and g.

c) for all values of x that are in the domains of f and g with g(x)≠0

Step-by-step explanation:

a) By definition (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x). Then x must be in the domain of f and g.

b) By definition (fg)(x)=f(x)g(x).  Then x must be in the domain of f and g.

c) By definition (f/g)(x)=f(x)/g(x).  Then x must be in the domain of f and g and g(x) must be different of 0.
