Answer:
40% number of calories have increased
Step-by-step explanation:
Old Value ( Calories consume before) = 2000
New Value (increase in Calories consumed) = 2800
We need to find by what percent did the number of calories increase
To find percent increase, the formula used is:

Putting values in formula and finding percent increase

So, 40% number of calories have increased
Upon a slight rearrangement this problem gets a lot simpler to see.
x^3-x+2x^2-2=0 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms...
x(x^2-1)+2(x^2-1)=0
(x+2)(x^2-1)=0 now the second factor is a "difference of square" of the form:
(a^2-b^2) which always factors to (a+b)(a-b), in this case:
(x+2)(x+1)(x-1)=0
So g(x) has three real zero when x={-2, -1, 1}

C) x = -19/10 because when solving it with substitution u get x=-19/10 & y=153/10
