Let x be larger integer so x-3 is the smaller
so x^2+ x-3 = 87
x^2 +x -90=0 and factor
(x-9)(x+10)=0
x=9 or x=-10 but x must be positive
so x=9 and smaller number is 6
Last one and first. You can find out why by isolating the cube root and cubing both sides.
Answer:
(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x = a is a root then (x - a) is the corresponding factor
Given x = 4 is a root, then
(x - 4) ← is the corresponding factor
Note if x = - 4 is a root , then
(x - (- 4)), that is (x + 4) is the corresponding factor
