Question
Simplify the expression
14l4−1
Evaluate
l4×14−1
Solution
14l4−1
Show Solution

Find the roots
l1=−1442744,l2=1442744
Alternative Form
l1≈−0.516973,l2≈0.516973
Evaluate
l4×14−1
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
l4×14−1=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
14l4−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
14l4=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
14l4=1
Divide both sides
1414l4=141
Divide the numbers
l4=141
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
l=±4141
