Question
Simplify the expression
80b6−2
Evaluate
b6×80−2−0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
80b6−2−0
Solution
80b6−2
Show Solution

Factor the expression
2(40b6−1)
Evaluate
b6×80−2−0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
80b6−2−0
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
80b6−2
Solution

Find the roots
b1=−406405,b2=406405
Alternative Form
b1≈−0.540742,b2≈0.540742
Evaluate
b6×80−2−0
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
b6×80−2−0=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
80b6−2−0=0
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
80b6−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
80b6=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
80b6=2
Divide both sides
8080b6=802
Divide the numbers
b6=802
Cancel out the common factor 2
b6=401
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
