3x -4y -2 +2x+6 simplify each expression

5x-4y+4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-4y-2+2x+6

Gathers like terms together:

3x+2x= 5x

-4y= -4y

-2+6= 4

Put it together:

5x-4y+4

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.
