Solve 1-6x^2 - ScanMath

Evaluate

1 - 6 x^{2}

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

1 - 6 x^{2} = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 6 x^{2} = 0 - 1

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 6 x^{2} = - 1

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

6 x^{2} = 1

Divide both sides

\frac{6 x ^{2}}{6} = \frac{1}{6}

Divide the numbers

x^{2} = \frac{1}{6}

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

x = \pm \frac{1}{6}

Simplify the expression

More Steps

x = \pm \frac{6}{6}

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

x = \frac{6}{6} x = - \frac{6}{6}

Solution

x_{1} = - \frac{6}{6}, x_{2} = \frac{6}{6}

Alternative Form

x_{1} \approx - 0.408248, x_{2} \approx 0.408248
