Solve 324x^2-121 - ScanMath

Question

Factor the expression

(18 x - 11) (18 x + 11)

Evaluate

324 x^{2} - 121

Rewrite the expression in exponential form

(18 x)^{2} - 1 1^{2}

Solution

(18 x - 11) (18 x + 11)

Show Solution

x_{1} = - \frac{11}{18}, x_{2} = \frac{11}{18}

Alternative Form

x_{1} = - 0.6 \dot{1}, x_{2} = 0.6 \dot{1}

Evaluate

324 x^{2} - 121

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

324 x^{2} - 121 = 0

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

324 x^{2} = 0 + 121

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

324 x^{2} = 121

Divide both sides

\frac{324 x ^{2}}{324} = \frac{121}{324}

Divide the numbers

x^{2} = \frac{121}{324}

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

x = \pm \frac{121}{324}
