The cube root of 75 is the value that, when multiplied by itself three times (cubed), gives the original number 75. Do you know? Cube roots apply to our real life also, like that for measuring dimensions, density and mass, field of engineering etc.
The cube root of 75 is 4.21716332651. The cube root of 75 is expressed as ∛75 in radical form, where the “∛" sign is called the “radical” sign. In exponential form, it is written as (75)⅓. If “m” is the cube root of 75, then, m3=75. Let us find the value of “m”.
The cube root of 75 is expressed as ∛75 as its simplest radical form,
since 75 = 5×5×3
∛75 = ∛(5×5×3)
Group together three same factors at a time and put the remaining factor under the ∛ .
∛75= ∛75
We can find cube root of 75 through a method, named as, Halley’s Method. Let us see how it finds the result.
Now, what is Halley’s Method? It is an iterative method for finding cube roots of a given number N, such that, x3=N,
where this method approximates the value of “x”.
Formula is ∛a≅ x((x3+2a) / (2x3+a)), where
a=given number whose cube root you are going to find
x=integer guess for the cubic root
Let us apply Halley’s method on the given number 75.
Step 1: Let a=75. Let us take x as 4, since, 43=64 is the nearest perfect cube which is less than 75.
Step 2: Apply the formula. ∛75≅ 4((43+2×75) / (2(4)3+75))= 4.12…
Hence, 4.12… is the approximate cubic root of 75.
Here are some common mistakes with their solutions given:
Find (∛75/ ∛64) × (∛75/ ∛64) × (∛75/ ∛64)
(∛75/ ∛64) × (∛75/ ∛64) × (∛75/ ∛64)
= (∛75× ∛75× ∛75) / (∛64× ∛64× ∛64)
=((75)⅓)3/ ((64)⅓)3
=75/64
Answer: 75/64
We solved and simplified the exponent part first using the fact that, ∛75=(75)⅓ and ∛64=(64)⅓ , then solved.
If y = ∛75, find y³.
y=∛75
⇒ y3= (∛75)3
⇒ y3= 75
Answer: 75
(∛75)3=(751/3)3=75. Using this, we found the value of y3.
Subtract ∛75 - ∛64
∛75-∛64
= 4.217–4
= 0.217
Answer: 0.217
We know that the cubic root of 64 is 4, hence subtracting ∛64 from ∛75.
What is ∛(75⁶) ?
∛(756)
= ((75)6))1/3
=( 75)2
= 5625
Answer: 5625
We solved and simplified the exponent part first using the fact that, ∛75=(75)⅓, then solved.
Find ∛(75+(-11)).
∛(75-11)
= ∛64
= 4
Answer: 4
Simplified the expression, and found out the cubic root of the result.
