Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 2\cdot1^3-2\cdot1-4 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]2\cdot1-2\cdot1-4 &= 0&& \\[1 em]2\cdot1-2\cdot1-4 &= 0&& \\[1 em]-4 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ -4 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
