Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(1−2)x3
Subtract the numbers
−x3
−x3−1
−x3−1>0
Rewrite the expression
−x3−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x3=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x3=1
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
x3=−1
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3−1
Calculate
x=3−1
