Use the factor theorem to show that (x+2) is a factor of g(x)= 4x^3 - 12x^2 - 15x + 50

To prove (x+2) is a factor, the value of x that makes x+2 equal 0 must be substituted into the function g(x) also making g(x)=0. In this case, the value of x being -2 makes x+2 equal to 0 and when substit...

Find the area bounded be the curve with the equation y = x^2, the line x = 1, the line x = -1, and the x-axis.

The answer is 2/3. This can either be obtained by performing a standard integration of y=x^2, using the power rule, between x = 1 and x = -1. Alternatively, integrate y = x^2 between x = 0 and x = 1, then...
