Luke is making pizzas. he started with 4 1/2 cups of pepperoni. he has used 2/3 of his pepperoni. how many cups of pepperoni has he used so far? do a estimate and find the answer. explain your reasoning.

-4

step-by-step explanation:

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.

answer:   y=2x-3
