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:
M= -16
Step-by-step explanation:
Thats the answer if youre doing one step equations
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
make proportion giants to elves
120/144 = 90/x cross multiply
120x =144*90
120x =12960 divide by 120
x = 108
so if there are 90 giants in the theater there are 108 elves also
considering that total 144 elves can be in the theater subtract 144 and 108 so 36 more elves can be admitted
