Four times greg’s age, decreased by three is equal to three times greg’s age, increased by seven. how old is greg?

Greg is three years old

Step-by-step explanation:

4g-3=3g

subtract 4g from both sides of the equation.

-3=-g

divide both sides of the equation by -1

3=g

g=3

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.
