Question 67609: Problem is:
x - x^2/3 = x^1/3 (??) Fill in the ??. The object is to find the equation that when multiplied by x^1/3 would give the result of x - x^2/3.
I know this has to be something simple, but my brain is fried.

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x - x^2/3 = x^1/3 (??)
----------
You are factoring out x^(1/3)
You start with x(3/3)-x^(2/3)
Youf factor out x^(1/3) and get:
(x^(1/3))(x^(2/3)-x^(1/3)
--------
So your ?? is (x^(2/3)-x^(1/3))
Cheers,
Stan H.
