Solve 55x ^ 5 - 5

Evaluate

55 x^{5} - 5

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

55 x^{5} - 5 = 0

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

55 x^{5} = 0 + 5

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

55 x^{5} = 5

Divide both sides

\frac{55 x ^{5}}{55} = \frac{5}{55}

Divide the numbers

x^{5} = \frac{5}{55}

Cancel out the common factor 5

x^{5} = \frac{1}{11}

Take the 5 -th root on both sides of the equation

5 x^{5} = 5 \frac{1}{11}

Calculate

x = 5 \frac{1}{11}
