Here
By the Lutz–Nagell theorem, a nonzero rational torsion point has integral coordinates and either or . Part b gives , so . The cubic has no integral zero. Substitution of gives exactly
This proves the required inclusion.
Since , the point has order three. The point is not torsion because is nonintegral, contradicting Nagell–Lutz. If or were torsion, adding the torsion point would make torsion; their negatives are excluded in the same way. Hence
