The cube root of is equal to for any value of x because the sign of x is retained by the presence of the power 2. But can take on only non-negative values (because it is a square root!). Technically speaking, = ||, and so there would be a problem if x<0. For example, if we allow x <0, then , but a square root is always non-negative!
