what number multiplied by itself 3 times equals -1000
-10x-10x-10=-1000. Another way to think of that is the cube root of -1000 is -10.
Answer: the number is x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
We want a number X that when we multiply it by itself 3 times we get -1000
This is:
XXX = -1000
X^3 = - 1000
We can apply the cubic root to both sides of the equation, and get:
\(\sqrt[3]{x^3} = X = \sqrt[3]{-1000}\)
Then X = -10
And you can prove it by:
-10-10-10 = (-10-10)-10 = 100*-10 = -1000
