Solve 5b^2 37b=-42

Evaluate

5 b^{2} \times 37 b = - 42

Multiply

More Steps

185 b^{3} = - 42

Divide both sides

\frac{185 b ^{3}}{185} = \frac{- 42}{185}

Divide the numbers

b^{3} = \frac{- 42}{185}

Use \frac{- a}{b} = \frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b} to rewrite the fraction

b^{3} = - \frac{42}{185}

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

3 b^{3} = 3 - \frac{42}{185}

Calculate

b = 3 - \frac{42}{185}
