I found the answer to be ZERO, but would you count this expression to be ZERO or NO SOLUTION?? Expression below. IT's to solve for v.

OpenStudy (artfis):

\[v^3 = -12\]

OpenStudy (artfis):

It turns into \[v = \sqrt[3]{-12}\]

OpenStudy (noelgreco):

That's right.

OpenStudy (artfis):

Zero? or No solution?

OpenStudy (noelgreco):

If that's a cube root, you can take the odd root of a negative power. There's no way to simplify the radical because there are no perfect cubes that are also integral factors of 12. Punch it in to your calculator, and you'll get approx -2.289
