Step by step:- Step one, subtract 8 brom both sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-\sqrt[3]{4x} = 2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now take cube on both sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-\sqrt{4x} = 8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. That's an error. See, that sign above 4 is, implies that it's the third root of 4x. Not (4x)^3/2 It's just -(4x)^1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So technically, what you get is -4x=8. You can find the value of x, now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt[3]{a}\] is actually a^(1/3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok just a moment please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you cancel the cube when you take cube on both sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. That's not cube, by the way, that's 1/3 rd exponential power.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thankyou. so is x=-2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you so much!!!

Glad to help. =)
