Multiply the terms

2 x^{2} \times 4 x

Multiply the terms

8 x^{2} \times x

Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents

8 x^{2 + 1}

Add the numbers

8 x^{3}

8 x^{3} - 66 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

8 x^{3} = 0 + 66

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

8 x^{3} = 66

Divide both sides

\frac{8 x ^{3}}{8} = \frac{66}{8}

Divide the numbers

x^{3} = \frac{66}{8}

Cancel out the common factor 2

x^{3} = \frac{33}{4}

Take the 3 -th root on both sides of the equation

3 x^{3} = 3 \frac{33}{4}

Calculate

x = 3 \frac{33}{4}
