A population count of birds at a lake was done by a National Park. They counted 18 birds during the current week. The population of birds in that lake triples every week. If the population of birds w weeks after the current week is 1,458, which of the following equations can be used to find w? A. B. C. D.

A question like this  without options is like an answer without purpose or meaning.

step-by-step explanation:

it's the only multiple of both and the least

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.
