Evaluate
56−3a3×14
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
56−3a3×14=0
Multiply the terms
56−42a3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−42a3=0−56
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−42a3=−56
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
42a3=56
Divide both sides
4242a3=4256
Divide the numbers
a3=4256
Cancel out the common factor 14
a3=34
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3a3=334
Calculate
a=334
