Find the roots
x1=−103,x2=103
Alternative Form
x1≈−1.116123,x2≈1.116123
Evaluate
(x×1)(x2)(x3)(x4)−3
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(x×1)(x2)(x3)(x4)−3=0
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
x(x2)(x3)(x4)−3=0
Calculate
x×x2(x3)(x4)−3=0
Calculate
x×x2×x3(x4)−3=0

x1+2+3+4
Add the numbers
x10
x10−3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x10=0+3
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x10=3
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±103
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=103x=−103
Solution
x1=−103,x2=103
Alternative Form
x1≈−1.116123,x2≈1.116123
