Find the roots
a1=−4851261,a2=4851261
Alternative Form
a1≈−0.073218,a2≈0.073218
Evaluate
194a2×25−26
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
194a2×25−26=0
Multiply the terms
4850a2−26=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
4850a2=0+26
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
4850a2=26
Divide both sides
48504850a2=485026
Divide the numbers
a2=485026
Cancel out the common factor 2
a2=242513
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
a=±242513
