416k4−1
Evaluate
k4×416−1
Solution
416k4−1
Show Solution

Find the roots
k1=−52417576,k2=52417576
Alternative Form
k1≈−0.221425,k2≈0.221425
Evaluate
k4×416−1
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
k4×416−1=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
416k4−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
416k4=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
416k4=1
Divide both sides
416416k4=4161
Divide the numbers
k4=4161
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
k=±44161
