Subtract the numbers
−459x3
−459x3−4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−459x3=0+4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−459x3=4
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
459x3=−4
Divide both sides
459459x3=459−4
Divide the numbers
x3=459−4
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
