Why THE CUBIC FORMULA Doesn’t Always Work: Application, Example and Explanation

Описание: In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of cubic equations and explore the elusive cubic formula. Unlike the well-known quadratic formula, the cubic formula is rarely taught in schools, despite being a milestone in the history of mathematics. Why is this the case? Join us as we break through this mathematical wall of silence and uncover the mysteries of cubic equations!

We'll start by discussing the general form of a cubic equation:
ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = 0
and explore the roots of the cubic function defined by this equation. You'll learn how all the roots can be found through algebraic means, involving the four coefficients, basic arithmetic operations, and radicals. We'll also touch on trigonometric solutions and numerical approximations using root-finding algorithms like Newton's method.

In addition to solving some intriguing examples using the cubic formula, we'll also address why this formula is not always practical for everyday use. From the complexity of the formula itself to the intricate nature of its solutions, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the strengths and limitations of the cubic formula.
