There is no cube root of a negative integer. State whether the statement is true or false.

Solution:

Given, there is no cube root of a negative integer.

We have to determine if the given statement is true or false.

Consider a negative integer -3

Cube of -3 = (-3)³

= -3 × -3 × -3

= 9 × -3

= -27

Cube root is an inverse operation of the cube.

Cube root of -27 = ∛(-3)³ = -3

Therefore, -3 is the cube root of a negative integer -27.
