−42z2−360z4=0
Factor the expression
−6z2(7+60z2)=0
Divide both sides
z2(7+60z2)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
z2=07+60z2=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
z=07+60z2=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
7+60z2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
60z2=0−7
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
60z2=−7
Divide both sides
6060z2=60−7
Divide the numbers
z2=60−7
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
z2=−607
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
z=±−607
