let  x= u+v  ⇒  (u+v)^3 +2α(u+v)−3=0  ⇒ u^3 +v^3 +(u+v)(3uv+2α)−3=0    Further let (we can..) that         3uv+2α = 0  ⇒   u^3 v^3  = −((8α^3 )/(27))      Then     u^3 +v^3  = 3      u^3 , v^3  are then roots of eq.          z^2 −3z−((8α^3 )/(27)) = 0  ⇒   u^3 , v^3  = ((3±(√(9+((32α^3 )/(27)))))/2)  As         x = u+v  ⇒  x(α) = (((3/2)+(√((9/4)+((8α^3 )/(27))))))^(1/3)                       +(((3/2)−(√((9/4)+((8α^3 )/(27))))))^(1/3)        x∣_(α=−1)  = (((3/2)+(√((211)/(108)))))^(1/3)                              +(((3/2)−(√((211)/(108)))))^(1/3)   .
