Find the roots
x1=−13413182,x2=0,x3=13413182
Alternative Form
x1≈−0.824237,x2=0,x3≈0.824237
Evaluate
6x2−13x6
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
6x2−13x6=0
Factor the expression
x2(6−13x4)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x2=06−13x4=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=06−13x4=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
6−13x4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−13x4=0−6
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−13x4=−6
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
13x4=6
Divide both sides
1313x4=136
Divide the numbers
x4=136
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±4136
