Algebra Problem

Question

−3 = (y2 − y + 5) − (4y2 + 2y − 6 − 2y)(y − 1))

Answer 1

Using basic algebra, simplify the equation to:

 

4y³ - 5y² -5y - 2 = 0  you can factor out (y - 2) and get

 

(y - 2)(4y² + 3y + 1) = 0

The firsy answer is 2, the second needs to be found using the quadratic formula
