To find the value of the given equation \(x^3 = -5y^2 + 1\) at the point \((1,2)\), we need to substitute \(x = 1\) and \(y = 2\) into the equation and solve for the result.
Step 1: Substitute Values
We start with the equation \(x^3 = -5y^2 + 1\). We will substitute \(x = 1\) and \(y = 2\) into the equation.
Now, we combine the results:
\[
1 = -20 + 1
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
1 = -19
\]
Step 4: Evaluate the Equation
The left-hand side equals \(1\) and the right-hand side equals \(-19\). Therefore, the equation does not hold true at the point \((1, 2)\).
Final Answer
The equation \(x^3 = -5y^2 + 1\) does not hold at the point \((1, 2)\), so the result is inconsistent. Thus, we conclude:
\(\boxed{\text{No solution at } (1, 2)}\)
