(1−x3)x3=0
Multiply the terms
x3(1−x3)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x3=01−x3=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=01−x3=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
1−x3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x3=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x3=−1
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
x3=1
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=31
Calculate
x=31
Simplify the root
x=1
x=0x=1
