I need to solve this equation for P. I've got it partially solved, but I'm having trouble on the last part. Here's the equation.
4 = -200P^-3
I can get it down to:
-50 = P^-3
I think? But, I don't know how to get the -3 away from the P.
To remove the exponent -3 from P, you can take the reciprocal of both sides of the equation.
Starting with -50 = P^(-3), taking the reciprocal of both sides gives you:
1/(-50) = 1/(P^(-3))
Simplifying further, -1/50 = P^3.
Finally, you can take the cube root of both sides to solve for P:
∛(-1/50) = ∛(P^3)
This gives you:
P = ∛(-1/50)
Therefore, the solution for P is the cube root of -1/50.
