Solve 20p^(3)-25p^(2) 4p-5

Question

Simplify the expression

- 80 p^{3} - 5

Show Solution

- 5 (16 p^{3} + 1)

Show Solution

p = - \frac{3 4}{4}

Alternative Form

p \approx - 0.39685

Evaluate

20 p^{3} - 25 p^{2} \times 4 p - 5

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

20 p^{3} - 25 p^{2} \times 4 p - 5 = 0

Multiply

More Steps

20 p^{3} - 100 p^{3} - 5 = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

- 80 p^{3} - 5 = 0

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

- 80 p^{3} = 0 + 5

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

- 80 p^{3} = 5

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

80 p^{3} = - 5

Divide both sides

\frac{80 p ^{3}}{80} = \frac{- 5}{80}

Divide the numbers

p^{3} = \frac{- 5}{80}

Divide the numbers

More Steps

p^{3} = - \frac{1}{16}

Take the 3 -th root on both sides of the equation

3 p^{3} = 3 - \frac{1}{16}

Calculate

p = 3 - \frac{1}{16}

Solution
