x=n+f  ⌊x⌋=n  n+3=(n+f)^3   n^3 ≤(n+f)^3 <(n+1)^3 =n^3 +3n^2 +3n+1  n^3 ≤n+3<n^3 +3n^2 +3n+1  n^3 −n≤3  (n−1)n(n+1)≤3  ⇒n<2  n^3 +3n^2 +2n>2  n(n+1)(n+2)>2  ⇒n≥1  that means the solution  1<x<2  ⌊x⌋=1  x^3 −1=3  ⇒x=^3 (√4)

$$\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{f} \\ $$$$\lfloor\mathrm{x}\rfloor=\mathrm{n} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{3}=\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{f}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{3}} \leqslant\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{f}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} <\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} =\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{3}} +\mathrm{3n}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3n}+\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{3}} \leqslant\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{3}<\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{3}} +\mathrm{3n}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3n}+\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{3}} −\mathrm{n}\leqslant\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{n}−\mathrm{1}\right)\mathrm{n}\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\leqslant\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{n}<\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{3}} +\mathrm{3n}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2n}>\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{2}\right)>\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{that}\:\mathrm{means}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{solution} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}<\mathrm{x}<\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\lfloor\mathrm{x}\rfloor=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{3}} −\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}=\:^{\mathrm{3}} \sqrt{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$
