Question 177352
I am not sure if that root extends to the -5 term by it doesnt appear so.
:
{{{root(3,x)-5=3}}}
:
{{{root(3,x)=8}}}---->added 5 to both sides
:
{{{(root(3,x))^3=8^3}}}--->cube both sides
:
{{{highlight(x=512)}}}--->cube root of x cubed is just x
:
if by chance the first term was like this{{{root(3,x-5)}}}then you would start out cubing both sides and get x-5=27 and x would equal 33
