Answer:
4√2x.
Step-by-step explanation:
√32 = √2*√16 = 4√2.
√x^2 = x.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have

First, 125 is a perfect cube because

and
x^3 is a perfect cube because

so we can use the difference of cubes identity

Let say we have two perfect cubes:
64 because 8×8×8=64
and 27 because 3×3×3=27 and let subtract

we know that

but using the difference of cubes identity we should get the same thing.
Remeber cube root of 64 is 4 and cube root of 27 is 3 so we have


So the difference of cubes works for real numbers. This is a good way to help remeber the identity using real numbers.
Back on to the topic,
we know that 5 is cube root of 125 and x is the cube root of x^3 so we have


<span>First thing you'll need to know is that the value for this equation is actually an approximation 'and' it is imaginary, so, one method is via brute force method.
You let f(y) equals to that equation, then, find the values for f(y) using values from y=-5 to 5, you just substitute the values in you'll get -393,-296,-225,... till when y=3 is f(y)=-9; y=4 is f(y)=48, so there is a change in </span><span>signs when 'y' went from y=3 to y=4, the answer is between 3 and 4, you can work out a little bit deeper using 3.1, 3.2... You get the point. The value is close to 3.1818...
The other method is using Newton's method, it is similar to this but with a twist because it involves differentiation, so </span>

<span> where 'n' is the number you approximate, like n=0,1,2... etc. f(y) would the equation, and f'(y) is the derivative of f(y), now what you'll need to do is substitute the 'n' values into 'y' to find the approximation.</span>
