Algebra.Com's Answer #89616 by tutor_paul(519)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not quite right...you are OK up to this point: \n" ); document.write( "cube_root_of x=8 \n" ); document.write( "But to find x, you need to cube both side of the equation: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "------------------------ \n" ); document.write( "You were confusing how to incorporate that 1/3 term... \n" ); document.write( "The cube_root_of x is also written as: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Don't confuse that with what you did \n" ); document.write( "================= \n" ); document.write( "Good Luck, \n" ); document.write( "tutor_paul@yahoo.com \n" ); document.write( " |
