Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

x=root[45]6=1.0406
x=root[45]{6}=1.0406

Step by Step Solution

Rearrange:

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

                     5*x^45-(30)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  5x45 -  30  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   5x45 - 30  =   5 • (x45 - 6) 

Trying to factor as a Difference of Cubes:

 3.2      Factoring:  x45 - 6 

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 :  6  is not a cube !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect cubes

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  5 • (x45 - 6)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    5   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    x45-6 = 0 

 
Add  6  to both sides of the equation : 
 
                     x45 = 6
                     x  =  45th root of (6) 

 
The equation has one real solution
This solution is  x = 45th root of 6 = 1.0406

One solution was found :

                   x = 45th root of 6 = 1.0406
