Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Because x-1 is factor of f(x)

for x1=1, f(1)=0, then

f(1)=5*1^3+a*1^2-4*1-2=0

5*1+a*1-4-2=0

5+a-6=0

a-1=0

a=1

Graph each absolute value function. State the domain, range, and y-intercept.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

i)D:x\in R

ii)R: y\ge-3

iii) Y-int:(0,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

i) The given absolute value function is;

f(x)=|x+2|-3.

The absolute value function is defined for all real values of x.

The domain is all real numbers.

ii) The range is all y-values that will make x defined.

The given function,

f(x)=|x+2|-3.

has vertex at, (-2,-3) and opens upwards.

This implies that, the minimum y-value is -3.

The range is y\ge-3

iii) To find the y-intercept substitute x=0 in to the function.

f(0)=|0+2|-3.

f(0)=|2|-3.

f(0)=2-3.

f(0)=-1.

The y-intercept is (0,-1)

See attachment for graph.
