How do you do this problem?

  • When you see this equation; you should know right the way that the answer of y will be somehow have some never ending decimal place.

    The reason is that as you should know 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000

    and 11 x 11 x 11 = 1331

    so you value of y will be somewhere in between 10 and 11.

    and 1004 - 1000 = 4 only a bit more that 1000 which also means a bit more that 10.

    The answer of this

    y^3 = 1004

    y = 1004^(1/3)

    y = 10.0133......

  • y^3=1004

    y = cube root of 1004

  • If you want an accurate answer to this, you can use Newton's method. Rewrite it as below:

    y^3 - 1004 = 0

    all you want is the root of the equation.

  • divide 1004 by itself 3 times and thats what y equals.

  • use a calculator

    y = 1004^(1/3)
