1 Solving Equations Involving Cube Roots

2 Negative Solutions

3 Lets Do a Few

4 Think Pair Share When taking the cube root of a negative number, what must be true about the solution?

5 Finding the Cube Root of a Fraction

6 Checking for Understanding

9 We could make estimates if the cube roots are not perfect, but typically we simplify the cube root instead by pulling out perfect cubes so that we are keeping exact values. That is a topic for another day.

10 Discussion

11 Equations with Roots

12

13 Think Pair Share NO! -6 cubed will produce a negative solution

14 Cube roots have only one possible solution, whereas square roots can have 2.

15 Checking for Understanding Solve for x x³ = 8

16 Checking for Understanding Solve for x 512 = x³

17 Checking for Understanding Solve for x x³ = -1000

18 Estimating Non – Perfect Solutions

19 You can use the same process for yesterday to make your estimation x³ = 100
