Find D when 8x^3-12x^2-2x+D is divided by 2x+1 when the remainder is -2

8x3-12x2-2x+D...(1)

2x+1...(2)

Assume 2x+1=0 so x=-1/2

8x3-12x2-2x+D=-2... when divided by (2)

substitute -1/2 into all X values

rearrange to find D

How can do you factorize the equation x^2+6x+8


Consider the unit hyperbola, whose equation is given by x^2 - y^2 = 1. We denote the origin, (0, 0) by O. Choose any point P on the curve, and label its reflection in the x axis P'. Show that the line OP and the tangent line to P' meet at a right angle.


Sketch the curve y = (2x-1)/(x+1) stating the equations of any asymptotes and coordinates of the intersection with the axis. As an extension, what standard transformations from C1 could you use on y=1/x to get this curve?


Find the area R under the curve when f(x)=xcos(x) between the limits x=0 and x=2
