x=016x8−1=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
16x8−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
16x8=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
16x8=1
Divide both sides
1616x8=161
Divide the numbers
x8=161
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±8161
