Question
Simplify the expression
54l4−1
Evaluate
l4×54−1
Solution
54l4−1
Show Solution

Find the roots
l1=−544543,l2=544543
Alternative Form
l1≈−0.368894,l2≈0.368894
Evaluate
l4×54−1
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
l4×54−1=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
54l4−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
54l4=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
54l4=1
Divide both sides
5454l4=541
Divide the numbers
l4=541
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
l=±4541
