Find the roots
r=4331849
Alternative Form
r≈0.285437
Evaluate
r3×172−4
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
r3×172−4=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
172r3−4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
172r3=0+4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
172r3=4
Divide both sides
172172r3=1724
Divide the numbers
r3=1724
Cancel out the common factor 4
r3=431
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3r3=3431
Calculate
r=3431
