{ -0.5 - √2,  0,  -.5 + √2 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite these two functions in a vertical column:

 f(x)=9 x^{3} +2x^2-5x+4

-g(x)=5x^3-7x+4

Now combine (through subtraction) like terms, in order of descending powers of x:

f(x) - g(x) = 4x^ 3 + 2x^2 + 2x

Let's do some preliminary factoring here.  Factor 2x out of each term, obtaining

f(x) - g(x) = 2x(2x^2 + x + 1)

First setting 2x = 0, we find that x = 0 is one solution.

Applying the quadratic formula to 2x^2 + x + 1, we see that a = 2, b = 1 and c = 1.  Then the two roots of this quadratic are:

      -1 plus or minus √(1^2 - 4(2)(1) )        -1 ± √(8)

x = =

                         2(1)                                         2

This simplifies to:

      -1 plus or minus √(1^2 - 4(2)(1) )        -1 ± 2√(2)

x = =

                         2(1)                                         2

Thus, the roots of f(x) - g(x) are { -0.5 - √2,  0,  -.5 + √2 }

Answer: 440 grams for 1.54 is the better value
Explanation:
Take the price and divide by the number of grams
1.54 / 440 =0.0035 per gram
1.26 / 340 =0.003705882 per gram
0.0035 per gram < 0.003705882 per gram

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.
