problem

The largest solution to 9x3−20x=829x^3 - 20x = 8 \sqrt{2}can be written in the form a+bc,\frac{\sqrt{a} + \sqrt{b}}{c}, where a,a, b,b, and cc are positive integers, when simplified. Find a+b+c.a + b + c.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
The largest solution to
9x³−20x=8√(2)can be written in the form (√(a)+√(b))/(c), where a, b, and c are positive integers, when simplified.  Find a+b+c.
