Solve by Factoring -8=-3-6 cube root of x^2

$- 8 = - 3 - 6 \sqrt[3]{x^{2}}$

Step 1

Move all the expressions to the left side of the equation.

Add $3$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 8 + 3 = - 6 \sqrt[3]{x^{2}}$

Add $6 \sqrt[3]{x^{2}}$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 8 + 3 + 6 \sqrt[3]{x^{2}} = 0$

Step 2

Add $- 8$ and $3$ .

$- 5 + 6 \sqrt[3]{x^{2}} = 0$

Step 3

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt[3]{x^{2}}$ as $x^{\frac{2}{3}}$ .

$- 5 + 6 x^{\frac{2}{3}} = 0$

Step 4

Add $5$ to both sides of the equation.

$6 x^{\frac{2}{3}} = 5$

Step 5

Raise each side of the equation to the power of $\frac{3}{2}$ to eliminate the fractional exponent on the left side.

${(6 x^{\frac{2}{3}})}^{\frac{3}{2}} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Step 6

Simplify the left side.

Simplify ${(6 x^{\frac{2}{3}})}^{\frac{3}{2}}$ .

Apply the product rule to $6 x^{\frac{2}{3}}$ .

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} {(x^{\frac{2}{3}})}^{\frac{3}{2}} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Multiply the exponents in ${(x^{\frac{2}{3}})}^{\frac{3}{2}}$ .

Apply the power rule and multiply exponents, ${(a^{m})}^{n} = a^{m n}$ .

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} x^{\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3}{2}} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} x^{\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3}{2}} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Rewrite the expression.

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} x^{\frac{1}{3} \cdot 3} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Cancel the common factor of $3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} x^{\frac{1}{3} \cdot 3} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Rewrite the expression.

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} x^{1} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Simplify.

$6^{\frac{3}{2}} x = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Reorder factors in $6^{\frac{3}{2}} x$ .

$x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}} = \pm 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Step 7

The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

First, use the positive value of the $\pm$ to find the first solution.

$x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}} = 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Divide each term in $(x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}}) = 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$ by $6^{\frac{3}{2}}$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $(x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}}) = 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$ by $6^{\frac{3}{2}}$ .

$\frac{(x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}})}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}} = \frac{5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}} = \frac{5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Next, use the negative value of the $\pm$ to find the second solution.

$x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}} = - 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$

Divide each term in $(x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}}) = - 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$ by $6^{\frac{3}{2}}$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $(x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}}) = - 5^{\frac{3}{2}}$ by $6^{\frac{3}{2}}$ .

$\frac{(x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}})}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}} = \frac{- 5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{x \cdot 6^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}} = \frac{- 5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{- 5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Simplify the right side.

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$x = - \frac{5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

$x = \frac{5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}, - \frac{5^{\frac{3}{2}}}{6^{\frac{3}{2}}}$
