 3      2            
x  - 3*x  + 2*x = 210
$$x^{3} - 3 x^{2} + 2 x = 210$$
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$x^{3} - 3 x^{2} + 2 x = 210$$
transform
$$x^{3} - 3 x^{2} + 2 x - 210 = 0$$
or
$$x^{3} + 2 x - 357 = 0$$
$$x^{3} - 3 x^{2} + 2 x - 210 = 0$$
$$\left(- 3 x + 21\right) \left(x + 7\right) + \left(x - 7\right) \left(x^{2} + 7 x + 49\right) + 2 x - 14 = 0$$
Take common factor $x - 7$ from the equation
we get:
$$\left(x - 7\right) \left(x^{2} + 4 x + 30\right) = 0$$
or
$$\left(x - 7\right) \left(x^{2} + 4 x + 30\right) = 0$$
then:
$$x_{1} = 7$$
and also
we get the equation
$$x^{2} + 4 x + 30 = 0$$
This equation is of the form
$$a\ x^2 + b\ x + c = 0$$
A quadratic equation can be solved using the discriminant
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{2} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{3} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where $D = b^2 - 4 a c$ is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 1$$
$$b = 4$$
$$c = 30$$
, then
$$D = b^2 - 4\ a\ c = $$
$$\left(-1\right) 1 \cdot 4 \cdot 30 + 4^{2} = -104$$
Because D<0, then the equation
has no real roots,
but complex roots is exists.
$$x_2 = \frac{(-b + \sqrt{D})}{2 a}$$
$$x_3 = \frac{(-b - \sqrt{D})}{2 a}$$
or
$$x_{2} = -2 + \sqrt{26} i$$
Simplify
$$x_{3} = -2 - \sqrt{26} i$$
Simplify
The final answer for (x^3 - 3*x^2 + 2*x) - 210 = 0:
$$x_{1} = 7$$
$$x_{2} = -2 + \sqrt{26} i$$
$$x_{3} = -2 - \sqrt{26} i$$
Vieta's Theorem
it is reduced cubic equation
$$p x^{2} + x^{3} + q x + v = 0$$
where
$$p = \frac{b}{a}$$
$$p = -3$$
$$q = \frac{c}{a}$$
$$q = 2$$
$$v = \frac{d}{a}$$
$$v = -210$$
Vieta Formulas
$$x_{1} + x_{2} + x_{3} = - p$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} + x_{1} x_{3} + x_{2} x_{3} = q$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} x_{3} = v$$
$$x_{1} + x_{2} + x_{3} = 3$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} + x_{1} x_{3} + x_{2} x_{3} = 2$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} x_{3} = -210$$
