This solution is only for Positive real numbers.
x3+(1/x3)=18............(A)
or,(x3+(1/x3))2=182
or,((x3−(1/x3))2+4∗x3∗(1/x3)=324
or,((x3−(1/x3))2+4=324
or,((x3−(1/x3))2=320
or,x3−(1/x3)=√(320)
or,x3−(1/x3)=8√5............(B)
Now add A and B
A+B,
x3+(1/x3)+x3−(1/x3)=18+8√5
or,2x3=18+8√5
or,8x3=4(18+8√5)
or,(2x)3=72+32√5
or,(2x)3=5√5+3∗(√5)2∗3+3∗√5∗32+27
or,(2x)3=(3+√5)3
or,2x=3+√5
or,x=(3+√5)/2
so,x=(3+√5)/2
