You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"root%283%2Cx%29-5=3\"$ Start with the given equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"root%283%2Cx%29=8\"$ Add 5 to both sides\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=512\"$ Cube both sides\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So you are correct. \n" ); document.write( "
