Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
24x4+7=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
24x4=0−7
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
24x4=−7
Divide both sides
2424x4=24−7
Divide the numbers
x4=24−7
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
x4=−247
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±4−247
