Their product is a cubic of a rational number $x$ minus $x$

It is given the integer $6$. Analyze it into two parts such that their product is a cubic of a rational number $x$ minus $x$.

$$$$

Let $y$ be the one factor.

The other one is $6-y$.

We have that $$y \cdot (6-y)=x^3-x$$

How can we go on to find $x$ and $y$ ???
