Question

Simplify the expression

3 y^{3} - 2

Evaluate

3 y^{2} \times y - 2

Solution

More Steps

Evaluate

3 y^{2} \times y

Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents

3 y^{2 + 1}

Add the numbers

3 y^{3}

3 y^{3} - 2

Show Solution

y = \frac{3 18}{3}

Alternative Form

y \approx 0.87358

Evaluate

3 y^{2} \times y - 2

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

3 y^{2} \times y - 2 = 0

Multiply

More Steps

Multiply the terms

3 y^{2} \times y

Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents

3 y^{2 + 1}

Add the numbers

3 y^{3}

3 y^{3} - 2 = 0

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

3 y^{3} = 0 + 2

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

3 y^{3} = 2

Divide both sides

\frac{3 y ^{3}}{3} = \frac{2}{3}

Divide the numbers

y^{3} = \frac{2}{3}

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

3 y^{3} = 3 \frac{2}{3}

Calculate

y = 3 \frac{2}{3}

Solution

More Steps

Evaluate

3 \frac{2}{3}

To take a root of a fraction,take the root of the numerator and denominator separately

\frac{3 2}{3 3}

Multiply by the Conjugate

\frac{3 2 \times 3 3 ^{2}}{3 3 \times 3 3 ^{2}}

Simplify

\frac{3 2 \times 3 9}{3 3 \times 3 3 ^{2}}
