Question

can someone help me with this limit
(x^3+2x^2-8x-16)div(x +2) as x approaches -2

Answer 1

if the top factors out with an (x+2) you get a hole that can be filled

Answer 2

otherwise it goes off into infinity

Answer 3

see if the top goes to zero when x=-2 :)

Answer 4

looks to be a factor so take derivative of top since derivative of bottom = 1 and solve for x=-2

Answer 5

also known as the Lhop
