    For numbers which lie somewhat between cubes, the method becomes less accurate. IE ∛17, =2, +9/(2^2x3)= 9/12=3/4=.75, ans=2.75 actual answer 2.57. Using 3^3 gives 27-17=10, 10/(3^2x3)= 10/27= .37 [don't subtract from 3] (75+37)/2=56, ans= 2.56, much closer than 2.63 or 2.75. To get even closer or exact, subtract 2 from the 9, and add 2 to 10 in the 2nd case. This will produce 2.58 and 2.56 [by subtracting the .44 from 3], just either side of 2.57. So doing just one part would be only .01 off, which could be mentally adjusted.
    For 3 digit numbers use the same dual method or vary the differences by 5. In any case averaging the 2 results will achieve better accuracy.

    So is this trick using the derivative to solve the cubed? (i.e derivative of x^3 is 3x^2)
    Do you do the same with other roots? (ex. x^5, use 5x^4, etc)
    Would it be more accurate is you continued using 2nd or 3rd derivatives? (i.e for x^3 it go to 3x^2 to 6x to 6)

    @tecmath Please pin this:
    For those concerned with 8:15 -
    See, if you put "6 -1/12" on a calculator, you will still get 5.92 (5.916666...). So, he has just simplified "-1/12" to "11/12". You can still do it either way, however.

  • @larrycho1260
    @larrycho1260 2 роки тому +1

    I have a question.
    From example 8:25, so if like in the case of 'Cubic of 33', in which the answer if positive "3(2/9)", then you just leave as it is. However if the answer is a negative like in the second case 'Cubic of 207', in which the answer is "6(-1/12)", you substract the answer to "6-(1/12)".
    I was wondering why that happened. Why the positive one "3(2/9)" does not being added and become "3+(2/9)" too?
    I know that this is already the right solution for shortcut, I'm just asking out of curiousity.

    • @JeeAspirantAIR1
      @JeeAspirantAIR1 8 місяців тому

      you add in both cases i.e 33^(1/3) is 3+(2/9) and in the case of 207^(1/3) it is added again and becomes 6+(-1/12) . And that is just6-(1/12)

    What happens if we do this with a number we know is a cube number?
    For example, 343?
    The nearest cube number to 343 is obviously 343, which is 7³ so the first part of our answer is 7.
    Then we find the difference between our number and the nearest cube. In this case, it's 0.
    Then we take the 7, square it, and add 3 to get 7²+3 = 49 + 3 = 52.
    So, we have 7 + 0/52, which can then be simplified as ... 7.
    So, there you go. You've learned how to drive a taxi, by going from A to B, but then going past B, to get to C, then D, and then eventually going around the block to get back to B, because you're an idiot.... and then charge your passenger extra for the extra mileage.

    Can you a video on how to find perfect cube roots for 3 digits numbers??? Example, if I’m given the number 49,836,032, how can I easily calculate it so I know the cube root is 368, without a calculator? I can do 2 digit numbers easily, but not 3

    • @tonybarfridge4369
      @tonybarfridge4369 2 роки тому

      The cube root of 49 = 3~, the root of unit 2=8, so we have 3 _ 8 already. To get the middle digit is a bit tricky at first; We'll say a=8, 8^3=512, 836-512=324. The 2 is what to use in finding b the middle digit. 3a^2xb=?2, 192xb=?2, b can only be 6 (gives a unit 2 number) If you're like me it takes a while to get your head around it but it's worth it I feel.

    I think it would be helpful for most people if you explained why this works. Actually you are calculating (n + alpha)^3 = target, using a known n and then solving for the first order of alpha.

    "And, we can now put this as a decimal because one-eighth is equal to four point one two five." BZZZZZ!!!!
    Semantically incorrect. Always mean what you say; don't say what you mean!!!
    1/8 =/= 4.125
    1/8 = 0.125
    The answer to the question at hand (What is the cube root of seventy?) is 4.125 . . . or at least approximately close to the cube root because like he states, this method for determining the cube root of any number will often only give an approximated value. The cube root of 70 is more like 4.1212852998085568193774891173664 . . . still only an approximate, but significantly closer to the true cube root of 70 than what 4.125 is. Perhaps you might view this as nit-picking, but when it comes to Mathematics, and the fact that many people can not perform the most basic of mathematical functions simply because they do not like mathematics, and they don't like it because they never had a decent grasp upon its concepts. A teacher who makes such semantical mistakes in their lectures, when explaining how to perform various calculations, the students may take the teacher quite literally, and they can not figure out how he had reached that answer, or how a formula exactly calculates some value, or any other various concepts. Sure, the more advanced students will see and recognize the teacher's error, and they can still see how the concept functions, and what the teacher had meant to say, so they will still learn the concept correctly, unless it is a totally new mathematical concept to them, then they might not catch the teacher's error, and in not catching it, they are at a loss in fitting everything together for some concept, and thereby, never come to understand said concept. Yet, many students will never recognize the teacher's mistake, and will only be left with hating mathematics even more than they had previously, leaving them only more confused when it comes to mathematics.
