Question
Simplify the expression
h2−27
Evaluate
h2×1−27
Solution
h2−27
Show Solution

Find the roots
h1=−33,h2=33
Alternative Form
h1≈−5.196152,h2≈5.196152
Evaluate
h2×1−27
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
h2×1−27=0
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
h2−27=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
h2=0+27
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
h2=27
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
h=±27
