Rearranging this formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In terms of E

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My plan was to invert both equations. multiply the powers by 1/3 to cancel them out. Multiply across and take -1 from both sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have the solution, but I cannot get it.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

how much u getting ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 11,468

OpenStudy (anonymous):

should be 8913

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

hmm your answer looks correct. wolfram gives the answer around yours : 11380 http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%281%2F%281%2B%28x%2F%281.092*3*1000%29%29%5E3%29+%3D+.0233

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got the solution there, it still doesn't make sense to me how the textbook got this result

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

guess we both did the same mistake - assuming cube only to the second term of denominator lol

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

textbook simplified LHS as: 1/x^3 = (1/x)^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 I still don't get how wolfram is even doing that :[

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean it just skips a lot of steps in between.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yeah. till which step u understand textbook ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

does second step makes sense ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on wolfram?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

nope. ur textbook : 2.jpg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, I don't get the whole 3 square root thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can see that the textbook multiplies out the dominator and divides the square root

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

okay. lets see whats happening when we move from First step -> Second step

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My problem is definitely understanding \[3\sqrt{0.0233}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or where it comes from

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You just take cube root of both sides.......

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats right. just after first step, 1) by using reflexive property, write, LHS = RHS as , RHS = LHS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=1/b^3 -> cubert(a) = 1/b

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

@ironictoaster, did you get estudier explanation ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope : [ I'm looking for a example online about. It's stupid things like this that screws up exams for me.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

its okay. im listing down steps. see if they make sense : just after first step, 1) by using reflexive property, write, "LHS = RHS" as "RHS = LHS" 2) take cube root both sides. then its Second Step
