Evaluate

2 x^{4} = 5

Divide both sides

\frac{2 x ^{4}}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

Divide the numbers

x^{4} = \frac{5}{2}

Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots

x = \pm 4 \frac{5}{2}

Simplify the expression

More Steps

x = \pm \frac{4 40}{2}

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

x = \frac{4 40}{2} x = - \frac{4 40}{2}

Solution

x_{1} = - \frac{4 40}{2}, x_{2} = \frac{4 40}{2}

Alternative Form

x_{1} \approx - 1.257433, x_{2} \approx 1.257433
