First, fint the roots of the equation
1.

2. You can see that this equation has two different real roots. Note that you can make this statement without finding roots, only knowing the value of discriminant: since D=81>0, then the equation has two different real roots.
The answer is -4x + 6 hope this helps
Answer:
a² + b² = 68
a3 + b3 = 520
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
a + b = 10 (1)
ab = 16 (2)
A. Find a² + b²
(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b² (3)
Substitutite the values of (1) and (2) into (3)
(10)² = a² + 2(16) + b²
100 = a² + 32 + b²
Subtract 32 from both sides
100 - 32 = a² + b²
a² + b² = 68
B. a^3 + b^3
(a + b)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3ab(a + b)
(10)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3*16(10)
1000 = a^3 + b^3 + 480
a^3 + b^3 = 1000 - 480
a3 + b3 = 520
