Given:
( x 3 1 ) 3 + ( x 3 1 ) 2 2 ( x 3 1 ) = 0

Substitute x 3 1 = y

Thus, we have:
y 3 + y 2 2 y = 0
y ( y 2 + y 2 ) = 0
y ( y 2 y + 2 y 2 ) = 0
y ( y ( y 1 ) + 2 ( y 1 ) ) = 0
y ( ( y 1 ) ( y + 2 ) ) = 0
y ( y 1 ) ( y + 2 ) = 0
Thus, y = 0

or

y 1 = 0
y = 1

or

y + 2 = 0
y = 2

Now, remember that we substituted x 3 1 = y
Thus,
x 3 1 = 0
x 3 = 1
x = ( 1 ) 3
x = 1

or

x 3 1 = 1
x 3 = 2
x = 2 3
x = 8

or

x 3 1 = 2
x 3 = 1
x = ( 1 ) 3
x = 1

Thus, the answer is: x = 1 , x = 1 , x = 8
