Solve 4y^2-11y^6 - ScanMath

Question

Factor the expression

y^{2} (4 - 11 y^{4})

Evaluate

4 y^{2} - 11 y^{6}

Rewrite the expression

y^{2} \times 4 - y^{2} \times 11 y^{4}

Solution

y^{2} (4 - 11 y^{4})

Show Solution

y_{1} = - \frac{4 5324}{11}, y_{2} = 0, y_{3} = \frac{4 5324}{11}

Alternative Form

y_{1} \approx - 0.776545, y_{2} = 0, y_{3} \approx 0.776545

Evaluate

4 y^{2} - 11 y^{6}

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

4 y^{2} - 11 y^{6} = 0

Factor the expression

y^{2} (4 - 11 y^{4}) = 0

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

y^{2} = 0 4 - 11 y^{4} = 0

The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0

y = 0 4 - 11 y^{4} = 0

Solve the equation

More Steps

Evaluate

4 - 11 y^{4} = 0

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

- 11 y^{4} = 0 - 4

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

- 11 y^{4} = - 4

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

11 y^{4} = 4

Divide both sides

\frac{11 y ^{4}}{11} = \frac{4}{11}

Divide the numbers

y^{4} = \frac{4}{11}

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

y = \pm 4 \frac{4}{11}

\frac{4 5324}{4 11 \times 4 1 1 ^{3}}

Multiply the numbers

\frac{4 5324}{11}

y = \pm \frac{4 5324}{11}

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

y = \frac{4 5324}{11} y = - \frac{4 5324}{11}

y = 0 y = \frac{4 5324}{11} y = - \frac{4 5324}{11}

Solution

y_{1} = - \frac{4 5324}{11}, y_{2} = 0, y_{3} = \frac{4 5324}{11}

Alternative Form

y_{1} \approx - 0.776545, y_{2} = 0, y_{3} \approx 0.776545
