It will always be negative, because negative times negative times negative is positive.  for example,  -1 x -1 x -1 = 1 x -1  = -1
So when finding cube root you find the number which can multiply itself three times to get the number.
Cube root of -8 is -2
because -2 x -2 x -2
             =4 x -2
             =-8
Thus all cube root of negative numbers are negative because negative times  negative times negative is negative.

Julie has 50$ which is eight dollars more than twice what john has. How much does john have
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

John has $21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let John's "wealth" be w.  Then 2w+8 = 50, or 2w = 42, or w = 21.

John has $21.  Eight more than twice this is 42+8 = 50, as expected.
