Solve -4 = -2c^6 - ScanMath

Evaluate

- 4 = - 2 c^{6}

Swap the sides of the equation

- 2 c^{6} = - 4

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

2 c^{6} = 4

Divide both sides

\frac{2 c ^{6}}{2} = \frac{4}{2}

Divide the numbers

c^{6} = \frac{4}{2}

Divide the numbers

More Steps

c^{6} = 2

Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots

c = \pm 62

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

c = 62 c = - 62

Solution

c_{1} = - 62, c_{2} = 62

Alternative Form

c_{1} \approx - 1.122462, c_{2} \approx 1.122462
