−7m3
−7m3−2
−7m3−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−7m3=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−7m3=2
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
7m3=−2
Divide both sides
77m3=7−2
Divide the numbers
m3=7−2
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
m3=−72
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3m3=3−72
Calculate
m=3−72
