Solve p^41502-1 - ScanMath

Question

Simplify the expression

1502 p^{4} - 1

Evaluate

p^{4} \times 1502 - 1

Solution

1502 p^{4} - 1

Show Solution

p_{1} = - \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}, p_{2} = \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}

Alternative Form

p_{1} \approx - 0.160632, p_{2} \approx 0.160632

Evaluate

p^{4} \times 1502 - 1

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

p^{4} \times 1502 - 1 = 0

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms

1502 p^{4} - 1 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

1502 p^{4} = 0 + 1

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

1502 p^{4} = 1

Divide both sides

\frac{1502 p ^{4}}{1502} = \frac{1}{1502}

Divide the numbers

p^{4} = \frac{1}{1502}

Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots

p = \pm 4 \frac{1}{1502}

\frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}

p = \pm \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

p = \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502} p = - \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}

Solution

p_{1} = - \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}, p_{2} = \frac{4 150 2 ^{3}}{1502}

Alternative Form

p_{1} \approx - 0.160632, p_{2} \approx 0.160632
