Show Solution

Find the roots
a1=−10693643×1069363,a2=10693643×1069363
Alternative Form
a1≈−0.072778,a2≈0.072778
Evaluate
45−1604040a4
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
45−1604040a4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−1604040a4=0−45
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−1604040a4=−45
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
1604040a4=45
Divide both sides
16040401604040a4=160404045
Divide the numbers
a4=160404045
Cancel out the common factor 15
a4=1069363
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
a=±41069363
