Show Solution

Find the roots
x1=−1145324,x2=0,x3=1145324
Alternative Form
x1≈−0.776545,x2=0,x3≈0.776545
Evaluate
4x2−11x6
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
4x2−11x6=0
Factor the expression
x2(4−11x4)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x2=04−11x4=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=04−11x4=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
4−11x4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−11x4=0−4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−11x4=−4
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
11x4=4
Divide both sides
1111x4=114
Divide the numbers
x4=114
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±4114
