Hi Larry
x^3 - 168 = [ 24(x-2)] / 2
x^3 - 168 = (24x - 48)/2
x^3 - 168 = 12x - 24
Subtract 12x - 24 to both sides
x^3 - 168 - (12x - 24) = 12xx - 24 - (12x - 24)
x^3 - 12x - 144 = 0
Now, factor the left sides
(x - 6)(x^2 + 6x + 24) = 0
Set factors equal to 0
x - 6 = 0 or x^2 + 6x + 24 = 0
x = 0 + 6 or x^2 + 6x + 24 - 0
x = 6
Answer : X = 6
Good luck !
Answer:
a) Unit price :
- 12 cupcakes for $29 = $2.42
- 50 cupcakes for $129 = $2.58
Reasoning:
- 12 cupcakes for $29 = $29 ÷ 12 cupcakes which gives 2.416666667 and if rounded off gives you $2.42.
- 50 cupcakes for $129 = $2.58 accurately.
b) 12 cupcakes for $29 gives the lowest unit price as $2.42 is less than $2.58.

Let x- intercept represents time
Let y-intercept represents population
Let 1990 represent initial year
Points are (0,14.2)(10,12.4)
slope m= 
= 
General linear equation
y= mx+b --------------(i)
here m is slope and b is intercept
plug the 1st point in equation
14.2= -0.018(0) + b
b=14.2
y= 0.018x + 14.2
replace y with p(t) and x with t
p(t) = -0.018t + 14.2

Answer:
26x-67-x²
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given

Expanding (x-8)²=x²-16x+64
10x-3-(x²-16x+64)
10x-3-x²+16x-64
26x-67-x²
