Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
42x4−5=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
42x4=0+5
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
42x4=5
Divide both sides
4242x4=425
Divide the numbers
x4=425
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±4425
