You divide 16 into 12 and get 1.3 repeating
Let x represent the worth of the professional basketball player's autograph a year ago. Since his autograph's worth increased by 40% now, $364 is 1.40x.
364 = 1.40x
Solving for x gives x = 260.
Thus, the autograph of the basketball player was worth only $260 last year.
Sum of 2 perfect cubes
a³+b³=(a+b)(x²-xy+y²)
so
x³+4³=(x+4)(x²-4x+16)
set each to zero
x+4=0
x=-4
the other one can't be solveed using conventional means
use quadratic formula
for
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=

for x²-4x+16=0
x=

x=

x=

x=

x=

x=

the roots are
x=-4 and 2+2i√3 and 2-2i√3
