The square root makes it do fun things...

sqrt((x^4-x)-x^3)*2 = 0         or:

       __________________
      |
2 *   | /  4      \    3    =  0
    \/  \ X  -  X / - X 



solve for x:  x = 0
              x = -.75487766624669

Between those two values y is undefined.

Now graph y = x^4 and see what it looks like.
