Answer:
1.38 to the nearest hundredth.
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing:
x + 1 ) 3x - 1 ( 3
3x + 3
-4
so (3x - 1) / (x + 1) = 3 - 4 / x+ 1
Integral of (3 - 4 / x+1 ) = 3x - 4 ln(x + 1)
Between limits of 1 and 2 we have:
(3(2) - 4 ln 3) - (3 - 4 ln2)
= 1.6056 - 0.2274
= 1.3782.
keeping in mind that anything raised at the 0 power, is 1, with the sole exception of 0 itself.

I don’t see what your asking, theres no question. This is a statement.
I think its "Yes it can because -3.5 lies to the left of -1.5"
