If x=2 and y = 5, evaluate the following expression:
2(3y – 4x)

2(3(5) - 4(2) = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a calculator called MathPapa!

14

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3(5)-4(2))

2(15-8)

2(7)

14

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
