Show Solution

Find the roots
n1=0,n2=41
Alternative Form
n1=0,n2=0.25
Evaluate
n(n×4−1)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
n(n×4−1)=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
n(4n−1)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
n=04n−1=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
4n−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
4n=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
4n=1
Divide both sides
44n=41
Divide the numbers
n=41
n=0n=41
Solution
n1=0,n2=41
Alternative Form
n1=0,n2=0.25
