Answer:
a = - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x = - 2 is a root then f(- 2) = 0
f(x) = x³ + x² + ax - 4, thus
f(- 2) = (- 2)³ + (- 2)² - 2a - 4 = 0, that is
f(- 2) = - 8 + 4 - 2a - 4 = 0, thus
- 8 - 2a = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )
- 2a = 8 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
a = - 4
X = the age of Mr. Gilliam
His wife is 3 years older, so the age of Mr. Gilliam's wife = x+3
The sum of their ages is 95.

Mr. Gilliam is 46 years old.
Answer:
1) 15-4x
2) 3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
1) product of x and 4 is 4x then subtract that from 15
2) use x as your age in this situation so your age times 3 is 3x and since he's 2 years older than that u add 2 more
