To solve the equation 10x^(1/6) - 3x^(1/3) - 3 = 0, we can first let y = x^(1/6). This means y^2 = x^(1/3).
With this substitution, the equation becomes: 10y - 3y^2 - 3 = 0.
Now we can rearrange the equation: 3y^2 - 10y + 3 = 0.
We can solve this quadratic equation by factoring, using the quadratic formula, or completing the square. Let's use the quadratic formula: y = [-(-10) ± sqrt((-10)^2 - 433)] / 2*3 y = [10 ± sqrt(100 - 36)] / 6 y = [10 ± sqrt(64)] / 6 y = (10 ± 8) / 6
The solutions for y are: y1 = (10 + 8) / 6 = 3 y2 = (10 - 8) / 6 = 1/3
Since y = x^(1/6), we can now solve for x using these values: For y1 = 3: x^(1/6) = 3 x = 3^6 x = 729
For y2 = 1/3: x^(1/6) = 1/3 x = (1/3)^6 x = 1/729
Therefore, the solutions to the equation 10x^(1/6) - 3x^(1/3) - 3 = 0 are x = 729 and x = 1/729.
