Answer 1

I know this isn't helpful, but I REALLY need help on this question...

Given: f(x) = x^2 + 7x + 10. From the Rational Root Theorem, we know p=10 and q=1. List all potential roots using the ratio p/q.

Answer 2

Answer:

1.  16

2.  -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First factor the expression

lim x→1  (x^3 + 5x^2 + 3x-9)/(x-1)

lim x→1  (x-1) (x+3)^2/(x-1)

Canceling the x-1  in the top and bottom

lim x→1   (x+3)^2

Let x=1

lim x→1   (1+3)^2 = 4^2 = 16

2.  lim x→0 (x^2 -6x+8) /(x-2)          

First factor the expression

    lim x→0 (x-4) (x-2) /(x-2)        

Canceling the x-2  in the top and bottom

lim x→0 (x-4)

Let x=0

lim x→0   (0-4) = -4

Filling in the table

x     -.1      -.01       -.001     .001     .01     .1

f(x) -4.1  -4.01    -4.001   -3.999   -3.99  -3.9
