Well, k=5 is a solution by inspection. You could then take the full polynomial, k^3 - k^2 - 100 = 0 and divide (x-5) out of it and get a quadratic. That comes out x^2 + 4*x + 20 = 0, and the roots of that are -2 + i*4 and -2 - i*4. So 5 is the only real root.
@@TJ_104 Yes; it's a cubic equation and 5 is a root, so k-5 is a factor. Dividing it out leaves you with a quadratic. Of course you have to see that 5 is a root to start with - I'm just pretty good with numbers and knew that 5^3 is 125 and 5^2 is 25, and 125 - 25 is 100, so... there you go. It helps a lot that in problems like this on TH-cam the answer is almost always an integer, and usually a relatively small one. Not too many different things to try.
5 seconds to find the real root as k = 5. 5^3 = 125 and k^2 = 25 then 125 - 25 = 100. After that, divide by (k - 5) to get the quadratic and then the complex roots.
That was a fraudulent resolution of the exercise. As if by magic, 125 and 25 appear, both powers of 5, which is the solution. What a lack of seriousness of this channel!
Solving a general cubic equation is far too complicated for an admissions test so the applicant should assume that there is likely to be one solution that is easy to find. This is likely to be an integer and as k³ gets big very quickly, it's going to be a small integer. Given this thinking, it's pretty easy to find k=5.
It can be recived even esely: KKK - KK =100 KK*(K-1) =100 K*√(K-1)=10 10 can be obtained by multiplication 2*5, so if k=5, it is correct. In my daughter mathbook this type of equations often occurs.
You effectively noticed right at the beginning that k = 5 was a solution, so why not just long divide k^3 - k^2 - 100 by (k-5) to find the quadratic factor and then find the roots of that to finish the problem?
The first magic step, deciding to represent 100 as 125-25 (a cube - a square) is as hard as realizing that 5 is a solution by inspection, in which case, as others say, just divide by (k-5) and get the quadratic.
This was far too trivial: k*k*k has to be larger than 100, right? Well, 5 is the first integer for which this is true (8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343,etc), and then it becomes obvious that 5 is in fact the solution. This should take 10 seconds max to solve without either a calculator or even a piece of paper.
I immediately guessed K=5 and that works. That extra DOT (for multiplication) was confusing, but then he wrote it again without the DOT. Anyway, if this is all it takes to get into Harvard, then I'll stick with my degree from CLEMSON UNIVERSITY.
I mean if you are just going to examine it and make an educated guess, then just say so, otherwise actually solve it using either the cubic formula, or the quadratic formula by factoring out (k-5).
@@superacademy247 You see immediately that x = 5 is a solution. Dividing the equation by (x-5) gives a quadratic equation that is trivial to solve, and you're done. Much shorter and less to write, with less risk of making mistakes.

Hello Mr. Paper Killer! Here too much writing and talking again! Is it "very fancy" in very long way? When you realise that 100=125-25, k=5 is certain. But you like writing; often same thing over and over! Do you really need to write these? K-5=0 K=0+5 K=5 Lol!
It's not complex...I don't understand the complaints. In this example, rule is you do all the multi's then the subtraction. 5x5x5=125. 5x5=25. 125-25 = 100. Grow up.
sorry, but you are not presenting a solution. Instead you use the classic "trick" to guess and try a zero point of the cubic equation, and then do polynom division.
That's not maths, it's just guesswork. Five is a more or less obvious solution so you factor out (X-5) and you get a second degree equation. Nothing interesting here.
Sorry I don't know if you are a teacher or a student. First, please repeat x.x.x - x.x =100 ==> x.x.x= 100+x.x (from here we know for sure k>0 and this is the solution condition of the equation). When solving the equation, we only have one solution, which is 5. There is no addiction that satisfies K>0. So if you are a student, you should study again, and if you are a teacher, you should try to gain more knowledge and not be too stupid to get views or likes.

(k - 5) (k² + 4k + 20) = 0

No need for all the work. Use synthetic division to get the quadratic!!

100 = 5^2×4 = 5^2(5-1)
k^3-k^2=k^2(k-1)
therefore
k=5
easy math
Factorise. k^2(k-1). Check with 2 or 3 naturals. 5 is solution: 25*4.
Please plot a graph for y=x^3 and y=x^2+100 and in how many places both the graphs cut each other. You can visualise the solution easily.
k^3 - k^2 = 100
k^3 - k^2 - 100 = 0
(k - 5)(k^2 + 4k + 20) = 0
k = 5, -2 +/- 4i
k^3 - k^2 = 100
F(x) k^3 = 3k^2
3k^2 - k^2 = 2k^2
F'(x) 2k^2 = 4k
4k = 100
k = 100 / 4
k = 25
25*3*2 - 25*2 = 100
150 - 50 = 100

You are ignoring the imaginary solutions.
@@billjones4159 Yes, and that is/was intentional. 🙂

You would better state at the beginning that you expect \(k\) to be complex, not an integer, for example.
I just look at it and PING (5.5.5)-(5.5)=100 125-25=100

Have you ever seen k = 5 + 0 and only after that conclude k = 5?!!! This person is not a teacher or math student. He makes math boring.
It's his voice.
When you decided that 100 was 125-25 (5^3 - 5^2), you gave the answer! K=5
Since 2:30
K^3 - K^2=5^3-5^2
K = 5
k³ - k² = 100
k².( k - 1 ) = 2². 5²
Le facteur: 5, apparaît évidant.
5².( 5 - 1) = 5². 4
( k³ - k² - 100 )/( x - 5 ) = x² + 4x + 20
Discriminant: 4² - 4.(1)(20) = -8²
x = -2 - 4.i ou x = -2 + 4.i

Before the solution he wrote the wrong problem he wrote k³ × - k² = 100 and solved for k³ - k² = 100
Video is too short, i guess you can explain solution much slower and deeper
When submitting an exercise, you should precise the domain of definition for k : R, Z, C… If not, no solution could be found
I agree, and conventionally k would an integer.

K.k.k -- k.k = 100

k.k.k--5.5.5--(k.k --5.5) = 0
(k--5){k.k+5k+25--(k+5)}= 0

Put another way, i is not a number, it is a tool for calculation. If it remains in the solution then it is not a solution at all.
It is still a number just not label as a "real" number.
