Solve x^2 6x = 16

Evaluate

x^{2} \times 6 x = 16

Multiply

More Steps

6 x^{3} = 16

Divide both sides

\frac{6 x ^{3}}{6} = \frac{16}{6}

Divide the numbers

x^{3} = \frac{16}{6}

Cancel out the common factor 2

x^{3} = \frac{8}{3}

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

3 x^{3} = 3 \frac{8}{3}

Calculate

x = 3 \frac{8}{3}
