Solution
314l2−4
Show Solution

Factor the expression
2(157l2−2)
Evaluate
l2×314−4
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
314l2−4
Solution
2(157l2−2)
Show Solution

Find the roots
l1=−157314,l2=157314
Alternative Form
l1≈−0.112867,l2≈0.112867
Evaluate
l2×314−4
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
l2×314−4=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
314l2−4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
314l2=0+4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
314l2=4
Divide both sides
314314l2=3144
Divide the numbers
l2=3144
Cancel out the common factor 2
l2=1572
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
l=±1572
