Type your math problem... b^6-4

Question

Factor the expression

(b^{3} - 2) (b^{3} + 2)

Evaluate

b^{6} - 4

Rewrite the expression in exponential form

(b^{3})^{2} - 2^{2}

Solution

(b^{3} - 2) (b^{3} + 2)

Show Solution

b_{1} = - 32, b_{2} = 32

Alternative Form

b_{1} \approx - 1.259921, b_{2} \approx 1.259921

Evaluate

b^{6} - 4

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

b^{6} - 4 = 0

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

b^{6} = 0 + 4

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

b^{6} = 4

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

b = \pm 64
