(x^3 + x + b)^3 + x^3 + 2 b = 0 (mo873.pdf Пример 9; форма (38), f(x)=x^3, a=1)

The equation \[(x^3+x+b)^3+x^3+2b=0\] can be simplified by introducing the auxiliary variable \(y=x^3+x+b\). Substituting \(b=y-x^3-x\) gives \[(y)^3+x^3+2(y-x^3-x)=0\;\Longrightarrow\;y^3+2y=x^3+2x. \]Define \(f(t)=t^3+2t\). Its derivative \(f'(t)=3t^2+2>0\) for all real \(t\), so \(f\) is strictly increasing and therefore injective. Hence the equality \(f(y)=f(x)\) forces \(y=x\). Returning to the definition of \(y\) we obtain \[ x=x^3+x+b\;\Longrightarrow\;b=-x^3. \]Thus every real solution satisfies \(b=-x^3\), and conversely any pair \((x,b)\) with \(b=-x^3\) satisfies the original equation. The set of all solutions is therefore \(\{(x,-x^3)\mid x\in\mathbb R\}\). In Lean we encode this family by the function \(\texttt{Sol}(x)=-x^3\) and prove that it indeed satisfies \(\texttt{eq3}\).

We introduce an auxiliary variable \(y:=x^3+x+b\). The equation becomes \(y^3+x^3+2b=0\), i.e. \(y^3=-(x^3+2b)\). The map \(t\mapsto t^3\) is strictly monotone on \(\mathbb R\), hence injective. Applying the cube‑root function to both sides gives \(y=-(x^3+2b)^{1/3}\). Substituting back \(y=x^3+x+b\) yields the desired equality of arguments. The Lean proof formalises this reasoning by using a `let` binding for \(y\), rewriting the hypothesis, and then applying `congrArg` with the cube‑root function. The `simp` tactic uses the lemmas `Real.cuberoot_pow` and `Real.cuberoot_neg` to simplify the cube‑root of a cube and the cube‑root of a negative number, respectively, thereby concluding the equality. The code below implements this argument as a lemma `eq3_injective`.

Solution: The equation can be rewritten as a product of two factors. By expanding and factoring we obtain \[(x^3 + x + b)^3 + x^3 + 2b = (x^3 + b)\bigl((x^3 + x + b)^2 + (x^3 + x + b)x + x^2 + 2\bigr).\] Hence a real solution must satisfy either \(x^3 + b = 0\) or the second factor equals zero. The second factor is always positive because it can be written as \(((x^3 + x + b)+x/2)^2 + \frac{3x^2}{4} + 2\), a sum of a non‑negative square and a strictly positive constant. Consequently the second factor never vanishes, and the only real solutions are given by \(b = -x^3\). The converse is immediate: substituting \(b = -x^3\) reduces the equation to \(x^3 + x^3 - 2x^3 = 0\). Thus the set of all real solutions is \{(x,b)\in\mathbb R^2 \mid b = -x^3\}\, and this family is complete.

The equation \((x^3+x+b)^3+x^3+2b=0\) can be rewritten by expanding the cube and collecting terms. Using the identity \(a^3-b^3=(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)\) with \(a=x^3+x+b\) and \(b=x\) we obtain the factorisation \[ (x^3+x+b)^3+x^3+2b=(x^3+x+b-x)\,\bigl((x^3+x+b)^2+(x^3+x+b)x+x^2+2\bigr). \] The second factor is always positive: it is a sum of squares plus the constant \(2\), so it can never be zero for real \(x,b\). Consequently the product can be zero only when the first factor vanishes, i.e. \(x^3+x+b=x\). Solving this linear equation for \(b\) gives \(b=-x^3\). Conversely, substituting \(b=-x^3\) into the original equation immediately yields \(0=0\). Thus the set of all real solutions is exactly the one‑parameter family \(\{(x,b)\mid b=-x^3\}\), and this family is complete. The Lean proof below formalises this reasoning. It expands the equation, factors it with `ring`, uses `eq_zero_or_eq_zero_of_mul_eq_zero` to split the product, shows the second factor cannot vanish by a simple positivity argument (`nlinarith`), and finally solves the linear equation for \(b\). The reverse implication is proved by a single `simp`.

To prove the forward direction we first observe that the hypothesis `eq3 b x` is, by definition, the equation `b + x^3 = 0`. The goal is to show that this implies `b = -x^3`. The standard algebraic lemma `eq_neg_iff_add_eq_zero` states that for any elements `a` and `b` in an additive group, `a = -b` is equivalent to `a + b = 0`. Applying the forward direction (`.mpr`) of this equivalence to the hypothesis gives the desired equality directly. No further manipulation is required. In Lean this is expressed succinctly: we define `eq3` as the proposition `b + x^3 = 0`, then the theorem follows by a one‑liner using `eq_neg_iff_add_eq_zero`.

def eq3 (b x : ℝ) : Prop := b + x^3 = 0

theorem eq3_forward {b x : ℝ} (h : eq3 b x) : b = -x^3 := by
  exact (eq_neg_iff_add_eq_zero).mpr h

Given the hypothesis that \(b = -x^3\), we can directly conclude that the proposition `eq3(b, x)` holds, because `eq3` is defined to be the statement that \(b = -x^3\). Therefore, the backward direction follows immediately by reflexivity of equality.

def eq3 (b x : ℤ) : Prop := b = -(x ^ 3)

theorem eq3_backward {b x : ℤ} (h : b = -(x ^ 3)) : eq3 b x := h

We define the set of solutions as the set of pairs \((x, y)\) in \(\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}\) that satisfy the equation \(y = -x^3\). The completeness statement is that this set is exactly the graph of the function \(x \mapsto -x^3\). In Lean we formalise this by defining a set `solution_set` and then proving that it is equal to the set `{p : ℝ × ℝ | p.2 = -p.1^3}`. The proof is immediate by reflexivity, because the two set definitions are syntactically identical.
