To solve the equation x^6 - 4 = 0, we can start by adding 4 to both sides, which gives us: x^6 = 4 Next, we can take the sixth root of both sides, which gives us: x = ∛∛2 or x = ±∛∛2 So, the solutions to the equation are: x = ∛∛2 and x = -∛∛2 Note that ∛∛2 is the sixth root of 2, which is approximately 1.26.

You should put your answer in standard form. The magnitude of the 6 solutions is ³√2 times the 6 sixth roots of 1. So it's best to write: x = ±³√2, ±³√2*(1+i*√3)/2, ±³√2*(1-i*√3)/2

No quite. If you apply the third binomial formula, you get x⁶ − 4 = (x³ − 2) ⋅ (x³ + 2) = 0. This gives you x₁ = ³√2 and x₂ = −³√2 as the real solutions.

Your solution isn't simplified though.
first thought, if x^6=4, then x^3=2; and x=+/-(3√2)
To solve the equation x^6 - 4 = 0, we can start by adding 4 to both sides, which gives us:
x^6 = 4
Next, we can take the sixth root of both sides, which gives us:
x = ∛∛2
or
x = ±∛∛2
So, the solutions to the equation are:
x = ∛∛2 and x = -∛∛2
Note that ∛∛2 is the sixth root of 2, which is approximately 1.26.
Simply take log both sides with any valid base,
Or, write the equation as x^6=4, imply x=4^(1/6)=2^(1/3).
Yes. This is one solution. but there could be 5 more.

x⁶ - 4 = 0
x⁶ = 4
Imagine x is a complex number, such as: x = a + ib.
Suppose that: x⁶ = 6
The module of x⁶ is: M = 4 → the module of x ix: m = M^(1/6)
m = 4^(1/6)
m = [2^(2)]^(1/6)
m = 2^(2/6)
m = 2^(1/3) or m = ³√2 ← this is the module of x
The argument of x⁶ is β such as: tan(β) = 0 → β = 0 → similar to 2π
The argument of the first root of x is: β/6 = 2π/6 = π/3
So we can see that the first root of x⁶ is:
x1 = m * [cos(π/3) + i.sin(π/3)] → to get the second root, we add (2π/6) to the initial angle, i.e. (π/3)
x2 = m * [cos(2π/3) + i.sin(2π/3)] → and so on to the following
x3 = m * [cos(3π/3) + i.sin(3π/3)] → …
x4 = m * [cos(4π/3) + i.sin(4π/3)] → …
x5 = m * [cos(5π/3) + i.sin(5π/3)] → …
x6 = m * [cos(6π/3) + i.sin(5π/3)]
Recall: m = ³√2
x1 = 2^(1/3) * [cos(π/3) + i.sin(π/3)]
x1 = 2^(1/3) * [(1/2) + i.(√3)/2]
x1 = 2^(1/3) * (1/2) * (1 + i√3)
x1 = 2^(1/3) * 2^(- 1) * (1 + i√3)
x1 = 2^(- 2/3) * (1 + i√3)
x2 = 2^(1/3) * [cos(2π/3) + i.sin(2π/3)]
x2 = 2^(1/3) * [(- 1/2) + i.(√3)/2]
x2 = 2^(1/3) * (1/2) * (- 1 + i√3)
x2 = 2^(- 2/3) * (- 1 + i√3)
x3 = 2^(1/3) * [cos(π) + i.sin(π)]
x3 = 2^(1/3) * [(- 1) + i.(0)]
x3 = - 2^(1/3)
x4 = 2^(1/3) * [cos(4π/3) + i.sin(4π/3)]
x4 = 2^(1/3) * [(- 1/2) + i.(- √3)/2]
x4 = 2^(1/3) * (1/2) * (- 1 - i√3)
x4 = - 2^(- 2/3) * (1 + i√3)
x5 = 2^(1/3) * [cos(5π/3) + i.sin(5π/3)]
x5 = 2^(1/3) * [(1/2) + i.(- √3)/2]
x5 = 2^(1/3) * (1/2) * (1 - i√3)
x5 = 2^(- 2/3) * (1 - i√3)
x6 = 2^(1/3) * [cos(2π) + i.sin(2π)]
x6 = 2^(1/3) * [(1) + i.(0)]
x6 = 2^(1/3)
To go further:
= 2^(- 2/3)
= 2^[2 * (- 1/3)]
= [2^(2)]^(- 1/3)
= 4^(- 1/3)
= 1/4^(1/3)
Boy, he sure made a meal out of that. If X6-4=0, then it seems to me that x = the cube root of 2. No ? Why not ?

2 ^ (1/3) is one answer.
x = 1.26
😊أول مرة أرى معادلة من درجة ثانية يوجد فيها مجهولينx,x^2 تحل بديلطا
Well, I got cube root of two without pencil and paper.
X^6-4=0
6 log(x) = log(4)
Use base 2 logs.
6 log(x)=2
Log(x)=1/3
X= 2^1/3. Plus or minus since we’re raising x to an even power in the original equation.
Which is just one third of the answer.
@@Nikioko please share. I found plus and minus cube root of 2. Is there another number that equals 4 when raised to the 6th power? I would like to learn. The square root of minus one mystifies me.

Third binomial formula a² − b² = (a + b) ⋅ (a − b):
(x³ − 2) ⋅ (x³ + 2) = 0
Rule of the zero product: The product is zero when at least one of the factors is zero, so:
x³ − 2 = 0 or x³ + 2 = 0
And thus:
x³ = 2 or x³ = −2
By taking the third root, we get:
x₁ = ³√2 or x₂ = −³√2
Let's take the first factor of (x³ − 2) ⋅ (x³ + 2) = 0:
x³ − 2 = 0 for x = ³√2, obviously.
So let's factor out x − ³√2:
(x − ³√2) ⋅ (x² + ³√2 x + ³√4) = 0
Again, rule of the zero product. We know that with x = ³√2, the first factor becomes zero. So let's make the second factor zero:
x² + ³√2 x + ³√4 = 0
Now you can solve the quadratic formula the way you prefer:
x₃,₄ = −³√2 / 2 ± √(³√4 / 4 − ³√4)
= −³√2 / 2 ± √(−3 ⋅ ³√4 / 4)
= −³√2 / 2 ± √−3 ⋅ √(³√4 / 4)
= −³√2 / 2 ± i ⋅ √3 ⋅ (³√2 / 2)
= ³√2 / 2 ⋅ (−1 ± i ⋅ √3)
Now you have two complex solutions.
If you factor out x + ³√2 on x³ − 2 = 0 and solve the quadratic formula again, you get the other two complex solutions:
x₅,₆ = ³√2 / 2 ⋅ (1 ± i ⋅ √3)
So, overall, you get the two real solutions x₁,₂ = ±³√2 and the four complex solutions x₃,₄,₅,₆ = ³√2 / 2 ⋅ (±1 ± i ⋅ √3).
@@Nikioko Yep, I gotta figure out i. Thank you!

Warum nicht den Satz vom Nullprodukt anwenden?
So würde ich lösen:
x⁶ − 4 = 0
3. binomische Formal anwenden:
(x³ − 2) ⋅ (x³ + 2) = 0
Satz vom Nullprodukt ergibt schon mal:
x₁ = ³√2 ∨ x₂ = −³√2
Diese Lösungen kann man jeweils aus den kubischen Funktionen ausklammern:
(x − ³√2) ⋅ (x² + ³√2 x + ³√4) ⋅ (x + ³√2) ⋅ (x² − ³√2 x + ³√4) = 0
Und nun kann man die beiden quadratischen Funktionen (wieder Satz vom Nullprodukt) mit der pq-Formel lösen, um die vier komplexen Lösungen zu erhalten:
x₃,₄ = −³√2 / 2 ± √(³√4 / 4 − ³√4)
= −³√2 / 2 ± ³√2 ⋅ i ⋅ √3 / 2
= −³√2 / 2 ± ⁶√108 ⋅ i / 2
x₃ = (−³√2 − ⁶√108 ⋅ i) / 2 ∨ x₄ = (−³√2 + ⁶√108 ⋅ i) / 2
x₅,₆ = ³√2 / 2 ± √(³√4 / 4 − ³√4)
= ³√2 / 2 ± ³√2 ⋅ i ⋅ √3 / 2
= ³√2 / 2 ± ⁶√108 ⋅ i / 2
x₅ = (³√2 − ⁶√108 ⋅ i) / 2 ∨ x₆ = (³√2 + ⁶√108 ⋅ i) / 2
Dann kann man noch die Lösungsmenge mit den sechs Lösungen angeben, aber das schenke ich mir hier mal. Genau wie die Probe.
On y arrive aussi en recherchant les n racines d’un nombre complexe z:
z^n=r.e^i.2kpi/n avec k E {0;n-1} avec r=4 et n=6
Ce qui donne:
z^6=4.e^i 2kpi/6 avec k E {0,5}
Cela oblige à repasser à la forme a+ib:
z=r sin téta + i r cos téta
Avec r=4^1/6 et téta=pi/3 et ses multiples.
Il est vrai que ça tombe bien car, dans ce cas, les 2kpi/6 tombent sur des valeurs dont on connais les sin et cos.
J’accepte volontiers les critiques 😢

Can anyone explain how 2^(2/3)-4*2^(2/3) equals -3*2^(2/3)
For any x, x - 4x = -3x. This works when x=2^(2/3).
10^1.1= 1.26 10^1.2=1.58 10^1.3=1.98 10^1.4=2.51 10^1.5=3.16 10^1.6=4. That's it. 1.26 x 6 equals 4
So x=21/3
So y=😅
Now z=😢
x^6 - 4 = (x^3 + 2)(x^3 - 2) = (x + (2)^(1/3))(x^2 - (2)^(1/3)x + (2)^(2/3))(x - 2^(1/3))(x^2 + (2)^(1/3)x + (2)^(2/3)) = 0
x = +/- (2)^(1/3), ((2)^(1/3) +/- ✓((2)^(2/3) - (2)^(7/3)))/2,
(-(2)^(1/3) +/- ✓((2)^(2/3) - (2)^(7/3)))/2

Si a et b sont des nbres complexes, avec, en polaires,
a =(|a|,arg(a)) et arg(a) € [0;2pi[, et b = x+i.y, on a, en polaires,
a^^b = ( exp(x.ln(r) - y.arg(a)) , x.arg(a) + y.ln(r) ), ceci est vrai ¥a et ¥b (pourvu que arg(a) € [0, 2pi[).
Ici a^^6 = ( exp(6.ln(|a|) , 6.arg(a) ) et 4 = ( 4 , 0 ) (tout en polaires) ==> exp(6.ln(r)) = 4 et 6.arg(a) = 0 + 2k.pi.
D'où les 6 racines.
Rq ln est le logaritme réel.
Looks weird. Cause no one needs to take the answer with complex numbers. And every time all solutions are based on a simple rule - "D" does not equal "- value". So, X 3456 no need here. In the real world it calls - over engineering

Stop at real roots. Complex roots equals no roots.
Why should one not include complex roots?
