Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the factor theorem, if x + 2 is a factor, then by dividing the polynomial by the binomial, we are meant not to have a remainder

In this case, the remainder would be zero

So, if we set the binomial equals zero and substitute the x-value into the polynomial, we are supposed to have 0

So we have this as;

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

-2^3 -2(-2)^2 -2(a) + 6 = 0

-8-8-2a + 6 = 0

-16 + 2a + 6 = 0

2a -10 = 0

2a = 10

a = 10/2

a = 5

What is the oblique asymptote of the function f(x) x^2+x-2/x+1

Mamont248 [21]

$f(x)=\displaystyle\frac{x^2+x-2}{x+1}=\frac{x(x+1)-2}{x+1}=x-\frac{2}{x+1}
$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\left\{f(x)-x \right\}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2}{x+1}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{\displaystyle\frac{2}{x}}{1+\displaystyle\frac{1}{x}}
=0$

Consequently, t<span>he limit of $f(x)$ as x approaches infinity is $x$ .

In other words, $f(x)$ approaches the line y=x,

so oblique asymptote is y=x.

There was a layer of snow on joes driveway when it began to snow again. As the snow fell, joe measure the depth, in centimeters

OLga [1]

The minutes will be ur x axis and the cm of snow will be ur y axis

(10,2),(30,3.6).....using 2 points and the slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

slope = (3.6 - 2) / (30 - 10) = 1.6 / 20 = 0.08 cm per minute <===
