(it is a teacher created homework problem and not a problem in text. Even looked in text trying to find a model problem and could not. We are in the Mcdougal Littel Algebra 1 book.) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! solve for x in the following:
(x x x) - 3 = 8x
x^3 -8x -3 = 0

I graphed it and found it crossed the x-axis at 2.148177...
