Solution - Reducing fractions to their lowest terms

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     147-(x*x/22*x)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

             x
 Simplify   ——
            22

Equation at the end of step  1  :

                x
  147 -  ((x • ——) • x)  = 0 
               22
 Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 2.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  22  as the denominator :

            147     147 • 22
     147 =  ———  =  ————————
             1         22   

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

 2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

 147 • 22 - (x3)     3234 - x3
 ———————————————  =  —————————
       22               22    

Trying to factor as a Difference of Cubes:

 2.3      Factoring:  3234 - x³ 

Theory : A difference of two perfect cubes,  a³ - b³ can be factored into
              (a-b) • (a² +ab +b²)

Proof :  (a-b)•(a²+ab+b²) =
            a³+a²b+ab²-ba²-b²a-b³ =
            a³+(a²b-ba²)+(ab²-b²a)-b³ =
            a³+0+0-b³ =
            a³-b³

Check :  3234  is not a cube !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect cubes

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

 2.4    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = -x³ + 3234
Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  3234  and the Trailing Constant is  -1.

 The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1,2 ,3 ,6 ,7 ,11 ,14 ,21 ,22 ,33 , etc
 of the Trailing Constant :  1

 Let us test ....

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  3234 - x3
  —————————  = 0 
     22    

Step  3  :

When a fraction equals zero :

 3.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

  3234-x3
  ——————— • 22 = 0 • 22
    22   

Now, on the left hand side, the  22  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :
   3234-x³  = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 3.2      Solve  :    -x³+3234 = 0 

 Subtract  3234  from both sides of the equation : 
                      -x³ = -3234
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  x³ = 3234


When two things are equal, their cube roots are equal. Taking the cube root of the two sides of the equation we get:  
                      x  =  ∛ 3234  

 The equation has one real solution
This solution is  x = ∛3234 = 14.7881
