9x2(42x3−8)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
x2(42x3−8)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x2=042x3−8=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=042x3−8=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
42x3−8=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
42x3=0+8
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
42x3=8
Divide both sides
4242x3=428
Divide the numbers
x3=428
Cancel out the common factor 2
x3=214
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3214
