Solve p^213p - 30 = 0

Question

Solve the equation

p = \frac{3 5070}{13}

Alternative Form

p \approx 1.321476

Evaluate

p^{2} \times 13 p - 30 = 0

Multiply

More Steps

Evaluate

p^{2} \times 13 p

Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents

p^{2 + 1} \times 13

Add the numbers

p^{3} \times 13

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms

13 p^{3}

13 p^{3} - 30 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

13 p^{3} = 0 + 30

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

13 p^{3} = 30

Divide both sides

\frac{13 p ^{3}}{13} = \frac{30}{13}

Divide the numbers

p^{3} = \frac{30}{13}

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

3 p^{3} = 3 \frac{30}{13}

Calculate

p = 3 \frac{30}{13}
