Question
Simplify the expression
1712m2−1
Evaluate
m2×1712−1
Solution
1712m2−1
Show Solution

Find the roots
m1=−428107,m2=428107
Alternative Form
m1≈−0.024168,m2≈0.024168
Evaluate
m2×1712−1
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
m2×1712−1=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
1712m2−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
1712m2=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
1712m2=1
Divide both sides
17121712m2=17121
Divide the numbers
m2=17121
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
m=±17121
