Calculate a Cubic Equation

Calculator for cubic equations. The three results of the equation ax³+bx²+cx+d=0 will be calculated. Such a third-degree equation always has at least one real solution, but the other two solutions can also be complex numbers. Please enter a value for each coefficient a, b c and d. If this is omitted, then a is set to 1, the others to 0. The formula is converted to normal form so that the parameter a of x³ is 1.
Not for every equation a solution is found!

x³ + x² + x + = 0

Round to decimal places.

x3=

The solution formulas for cubic equations of the form x³+a2x²+a1x+a0=0 are:
a=12a1³-3a1²a2²-54a1a2a0+81a0²+12a0a2³
b=³√36a1a2-108a0-8a2³+12√a
x1=(b²-12a1+4a2²-2a2b)/(6b)
p=(-b²+12a1-4a2²-4a2b)/(-6b)
q=(a1a2b-9ba0+b√a+b²a1-2a1a2²-18a2a0+2a2√a+12a1²)/(3b²)
x2=-p/2+i√-(p/2)²+q
x3=-p/2-i√-(p/2)²+q
