412r4−4
Solution
4(103r4−1)
Show Solution

Find the roots
r1=−10341033,r2=10341033
Alternative Form
r1≈−0.3139,r2≈0.3139
Evaluate
r4×412−4
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
r4×412−4=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
412r4−4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
412r4=0+4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
412r4=4
Divide both sides
412412r4=4124
Divide the numbers
r4=4124
Cancel out the common factor 4
r4=1031
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
r=±41031
