Question
Solve the equation
x1=−312,x2=0
Alternative Form
x1≈−2.289428,x2=0
Evaluate
x6=−4x3×3
Multiply the numbers
x6=−12x3
Move the expression to the left side
x6−(−12x3)=0
Add or subtract both sides
x6+12x3=0
Factor the expression
x3(x3+12)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x3=0x3+12=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=0x3+12=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x3+12=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x3=0−12
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x3=−12
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3−12
Calculate
x=3−12
An odd root of a negative radicand is always a negative
x=−312
x=0x=−312
Solution
