Question

Rearrange the equation (x-1)(x-1)(x-1)=y to solve for x express x in terms of y

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=1+\sqrt[n]{y}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since: $(x-1)*(x-1)*(x-1)=y$

that would imply: $(x-1)=\sqrt[3]{y}$

This is a bit more clear, if you write the equation as:

$(x-1)^3=y$

and then take the cube root of both sides

$\sqrt[3]{(x-1)^3}=\sqrt[3]{y}$

Which simplifies to

$x-1=\sqrt[3]{y}$

Now add 1 to both sides, and you get the equation:

$x=1+\sqrt[n]{y}$
