$sqrt{2} +sqrt[3]{3}$ solution of an algebraic equation $ a_{0}x^{n}+a_{1}x^{n-1}+a_{2}x^{n-2}+cdots+a_{0}=0 $



How to find this equation?
I tried Cardano's method, noting that
$$sqrt{2} +sqrt[3]{3} = sqrt[3]{sqrt{8}} +sqrt[3]{3}$$



It means
$$begin{align}
-frac{q}{2}+sqrt{ frac{q^{2}}{4}+frac{p^{3}}{27}}&=3 \[4pt]
-frac{q}{2}-sqrt{ frac{q^{2}}{4}+frac{p^{3}}{27}}&=sqrt{8}
end{align}$$



but this system doesn't have natural solutions.



Maybe it has rational $p$ and $q$?

    By the way, the context of your question is not clear. Do you simply want to know a method for finding such an algebraic equation (with integer coefficients, something you neglected to say by the way), or do you want to find a method that BEGINS with Cardano's formula? I don't think beginning with Cardano's formula will help much because one can show (with some work) that there is no cubic polynomial with integer coefficients that has $sqrt{2} + sqrt[3]{3}$ as a root.

Let $x=sqrt 2 + sqrt[3]{3}$. Then,
$$
x-sqrt 2 = sqrt[3]{3}
$$

Cubing both sides and rearranging we have,
$$
x^3+6x-3=sqrt 2 (3x^2+2)
$$

Squaring both sides and rearranging we have,
$$
x^6-6x^4-6x^3+12x^2-36x+1=0
$$

    In the same spirit as Awe Kumar Jha, let $x=sqrt 2 + sqrt[3]{3}$, that is to say
    $$x-sqrt 2 =sqrt[3]{3}implies (x-sqrt 2) ^3=3$$ Expand and group terms to get
    $$x^3-3 sqrt{2} x^2+6 x-(2 sqrt{2}+3)=0$$ Use Cardano method; it will show that this is the only real root of the equation.
