Alternative Form
x≈1.27226
Evaluate
20−2x5×3
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
20−2x5×3=0
Multiply the terms
20−6x5=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−6x5=0−20
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−6x5=−20
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
6x5=20
Divide both sides
66x5=620
Divide the numbers
x5=620
Cancel out the common factor 2
x5=310
Take the 5-th root on both sides of the equation
5x5=5310
Calculate
x=5310
