Question 670430: Solve: 3*cubedroot(x)=20
I'm doing a practice problem with logarithms and this came up.
the part that confuses me is the cubedroot(x)
I feel like I get lost whenever I try to handle it, the answer should be 8000/27 but I get something much more messier.
Thank you for help in advance.

3%2Acubedroot%28x%29=20
/3
cubedroot (x) = 8/3
take the cube of the equation
(cubedroot (x))^3 = (20/3)^3
x= 20*20*20/3*3*3
x= 8000/27
