Find the value of xx that satisfies the equation (1/8x)3=1/2\sqrt[3]{(1/8 - x)} = -1/2.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation is (18x)3=1\sqrt[3]{\left(\frac{1}{8}-x\right)}=-\frac{1}{} . The solution is a real number

STEP 2

First, we need to remove the cube root from the equation. We can do this by cubing both sides of the equation.
\left(\sqrt[]{\left(\frac{1}{8}-x\right)}\right)^ = \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^

STEP 3

implify both sides of the equation.
18x=18\frac{1}{8}-x = -\frac{1}{8}

STEP 4

To isolate x, we need to move 18\frac{1}{8} from the left side of the equation to the right side. We can do this by adding 18\frac{1}{8} to both sides of the equation.
18+18x=18+18-\frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{8} - x = -\frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{8}

STEP 5

implify both sides of the equation.
x=0-x =0

STEP 6

To solve for x, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by -1.
1×x=1×0-1 \times -x = -1 \times0

STEP 7

implify both sides of the equation.
x=0x =0The solution is0.
