(3−75)x3
Subtract the numbers
−72x3
−72x3−25=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−72x3=0+25
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−72x3=25
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
72x3=−25
Divide both sides
7272x3=72−25
Divide the numbers
x3=72−25
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
x3=−7225
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3−7225
Calculate
x=3−7225
