Solve for a,a. Express your answer in simplest radical form if necessary.

a = ^3V-191.5 times ^3V-191.5 times ^3V-191.5 times

1 answer

To solve for \( a \) given the equation

\[ a = \sqrt[3]{-191.5} \cdot \sqrt[3]{-191.5} \cdot \sqrt[3]{-191.5}, \]

we can simplify the right-hand side.

First, recognize that \( \sqrt[3]{-191.5} \) is the cube root of \(-191.5\). We can denote \( x = \sqrt[3]{-191.5} \). Therefore, we can rewrite \( a \):

\[ a = x \cdot x \cdot x = x^3. \]

Since \( x = \sqrt[3]{-191.5} \), then:

\[ x^3 = \left(\sqrt[3]{-191.5}\right)^3 = -191.5. \]

Thus, we can conclude that:

\[ a = -191.5. \]

So the final answer is:

\[ \boxed{-191.5}. \]
