Find the roots
m1=−9987499,m2=9987499
Alternative Form
m1≈−0.156682,m2≈0.156682
Evaluate
m2×15988−147
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
m2×15988−147=0
Divide the terms
m2×5988−147=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
5988m2−147=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
5988m2=0+147
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
5988m2=147
Divide both sides
59885988m2=5988147
Divide the numbers
m2=5988147
Cancel out the common factor 3
m2=199649
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
m=±199649
