Solution
v(8v2−5)
Show Solution

Find the roots
v1=−410,v2=0,v3=410
Alternative Form
v1≈−0.790569,v2=0,v3≈0.790569
Evaluate
8v3−5v
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
8v3−5v=0
Factor the expression
v(8v2−5)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
v=08v2−5=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
8v2−5=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
8v2=0+5
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
8v2=5
Divide both sides
88v2=85
Divide the numbers
v2=85
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
v=±85
