Solution
314r2−16
Show Solution

Factor the expression
2(157r2−8)
Evaluate
r2×314−16
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
314r2−16
Solution
2(157r2−8)
Show Solution

Find the roots
r1=−1572314,r2=1572314
Alternative Form
r1≈−0.225733,r2≈0.225733
Evaluate
r2×314−16
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
r2×314−16=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
314r2−16=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
314r2=0+16
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
314r2=16
Divide both sides
314314r2=31416
Divide the numbers
r2=31416
Cancel out the common factor 2
r2=1578
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
r=±1578
