Solve by Factoring cube root of 7x-6=-3

$\sqrt[3]{7 x - 6} = - 3$

Step 1

Add $3$ to both sides of the equation.

$\sqrt[3]{7 x - 6} + 3 = 0$

Step 2

Subtract $3$ from both sides of the equation.

$\sqrt[3]{7 x - 6} = - 3$

Step 3

To remove the radical on the left side of the equation, cube both sides of the equation.

${\sqrt[3]{7 x - 6}}^{3} = {(- 3)}^{3}$

Step 4

Simplify each side of the equation.

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt[3]{7 x - 6}$ as ${(7 x - 6)}^{\frac{1}{3}}$ .

${({(7 x - 6)}^{\frac{1}{3}})}^{3} = {(- 3)}^{3}$

Simplify the left side.

Simplify ${({(7 x - 6)}^{\frac{1}{3}})}^{3}$ .

Multiply the exponents in ${({(7 x - 6)}^{\frac{1}{3}})}^{3}$ .

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

${(7 x - 6)}^{\frac{1}{3} \cdot 3} = {(- 3)}^{3}$

Cancel the common factor of $3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

${(7 x - 6)}^{\frac{1}{3} \cdot 3} = {(- 3)}^{3}$

Rewrite the expression.

${(7 x - 6)}^{1} = {(- 3)}^{3}$

Simplify.

$7 x - 6 = {(- 3)}^{3}$

Simplify the right side.

Raise $- 3$ to the power of $3$ .

$7 x - 6 = - 27$

Step 5

Solve for $x$ .

Move all terms not containing $x$ to the right side of the equation.

Add $6$ to both sides of the equation.

$7 x = - 27 + 6$

Add $- 27$ and $6$ .

$7 x = - 21$

Divide each term in $7 x = - 21$ by $7$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $7 x = - 21$ by $7$ .

$\frac{7 x}{7} = \frac{- 21}{7}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $7$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{7 x}{7} = \frac{- 21}{7}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{- 21}{7}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $- 21$ by $7$ .

$x = - 3$
