Question
Factor the expression
5(5−121v2)
Evaluate
25−605v2
Solution
5(5−121v2)
Show Solution

Find the roots
v1=−115,v2=115
Alternative Form
v1≈−0.203279,v2≈0.203279
Evaluate
25−605v2
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
25−605v2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−605v2=0−25
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−605v2=−25
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
605v2=25
Divide both sides
605605v2=60525
Divide the numbers
v2=60525
Cancel out the common factor 5
v2=1215
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
v=±1215
