Solve 12x^5-6 - ScanMath

Evaluate

12 x^{5} - 6

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

12 x^{5} - 6 = 0

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

12 x^{5} = 0 + 6

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

12 x^{5} = 6

Divide both sides

\frac{12 x ^{5}}{12} = \frac{6}{12}

Divide the numbers

x^{5} = \frac{6}{12}

Cancel out the common factor 6

x^{5} = \frac{1}{2}

Take the 5 -th root on both sides of the equation

5 x^{5} = 5 \frac{1}{2}

Calculate

x = 5 \frac{1}{2}
