Question
Solve the inequality
Solve the inequality by testing the values in the interval
Solve the inequality by separating into cases
0≤x≤318
Alternative Form
x∈[0,318]
Evaluate
4x4≤9x×8
Multiply the terms
4x4≤72x
Move the expression to the left side
4x4−72x≤0
Rewrite the expression
4x4−72x=0
Factor the expression
4x(x3−18)=0
Divide both sides
x(x3−18)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=0x3−18=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x3−18=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x3=0+18
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x3=18
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=318
Calculate
x=318
x=0x=318
Determine the test intervals using the critical values
x<00<x<318x>318
