Show Solution

Find the roots
y1=−339,y2=339
Alternative Form
y1≈−2.081666,y2≈2.081666
Evaluate
4(13−3y2)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
4(13−3y2)=0
Rewrite the expression
13−3y2=0
Rewrite the expression
−3y2=−13
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
3y2=13
Divide both sides
33y2=313
Divide the numbers
y2=313
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
y=±313
