the rhs has no defined value for x<0 i.e. try x=−1

$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{rhs}\:\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{no}\:\mathrm{defined}\:\mathrm{value}\:\mathrm{for}\:{x}<\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{i}.\mathrm{e}.\:\mathrm{try}\:{x}=−\mathrm{1} \\ $$

lhs p=((x+((x+...))^(1/3) ))^(1/3) p^3 =x+((x+((x+...))^(1/3) ))^(1/3) p^3 =x+p rhs q=((x((x...))^(1/3) ))^(1/3) q^3 =x((x((x...))^(1/3) ))^(1/3) q^3 =xq p=q=y ⇒ y^3 =x+y∧y^3 =xy

haha i didn′t see the right section because it was written in 1 line

x=0 if x≠0∧y>0 (1) y^3 −x=y (2) (y^3 /x)=y ⇒ x=y^2 (1) y^3 −y^2 −y=0 ⇒ y=(1/2)+((√5)/2) ⇒ x=(3/2)+((√5)/2)

$${x}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{if}\:{x}\neq\mathrm{0}\wedge{y}>\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{1}\right)\:\:{y}^{\mathrm{3}} −{x}={y} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{2}\right)\:\:\frac{{y}^{\mathrm{3}} }{{x}}={y}\:\Rightarrow\:{x}={y}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{1}\right)\:\:{y}^{\mathrm{3}} −{y}^{\mathrm{2}} −{y}=\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:{y}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}=\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$

simply y^3 −y^2 −y=0 y(y^2 −y−1)=0 y_1 =0 but y≠0 ⇒ not valid y_(2, 3) =(1/2)±((√5)/2) but y>0 ⇒ y=(1/2)+((√5)/2)

$$\mathrm{simply} \\ $$$${y}^{\mathrm{3}} −{y}^{\mathrm{2}} −{y}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${y}\left({y}^{\mathrm{2}} −{y}−\mathrm{1}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${y}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{0}\:\mathrm{but}\:{y}\neq\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{valid} \\ $$$${y}_{\mathrm{2},\:\mathrm{3}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\pm\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\mathrm{but}\:{y}>\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:{y}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
