ax^{3}+cx+d=-bx^{2}
Subtract bx^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
ax^{3}+d=-bx^{2}-cx
Subtract cx from both sides.
ax^{3}=-bx^{2}-cx-d
Subtract d from both sides.
x^{3}a=-bx^{2}-cx-d
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{x^{3}a}{x^{3}}=\frac{-bx^{2}-cx-d}{x^{3}}
Divide both sides by x^{3}.
a=\frac{-bx^{2}-cx-d}{x^{3}}
Dividing by x^{3} undoes the multiplication by x^{3}.
a=-\frac{bx^{2}+cx+d}{x^{3}}
Divide -bx^{2}-cx-d by x^{3}.
bx^{2}+cx+d=-ax^{3}
Subtract ax^{3} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
bx^{2}+d=-ax^{3}-cx
Subtract cx from both sides.
bx^{2}=-ax^{3}-cx-d
Subtract d from both sides.
x^{2}b=-ax^{3}-cx-d
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{x^{2}b}{x^{2}}=\frac{-ax^{3}-cx-d}{x^{2}}
Divide both sides by x^{2}.
b=\frac{-ax^{3}-cx-d}{x^{2}}
Dividing by x^{2} undoes the multiplication by x^{2}.
b=-ax-\frac{cx+d}{x^{2}}
Divide -ax^{3}-cx-d by x^{2}.
