    i) x=-2,1,3
    ii) x=1.4 or x=2.8
    iii) x³-2x²-5x=0 -> x²-2x-5x+6=0+6=6
    Y=6 x=-1.5 or x=0
    No: because a horizontal line will cut the graph at more than one point
    Surjective: any horizontal line will cut the graph at least once


    9 iii) limx³-64 ÷x²-16 = x²+4x+16÷x+4
    = (4)²+4(4)+16÷4+4 = 48÷8= 6

    For i) If you look at the graph and you will see 6 black dots. The black dots at 0 on the x axis are -2, 1 and 3. This is the answer because f(x)=0

    For ii) Again look at the graph, this time on the Y axis. The second line from o says -4, above this at the next line, draw a horizontal line. This will be your -2. Where that line touches off the red line place line up touching the x axis. This will roughly show the answer as 1.4 and 2.8

    I hope my explanation isn't too complicated :o
