514s2−25
Evaluate
s2×514−25
Solution
514s2−25
Show Solution

Find the roots
s1=−5145514,s2=5145514
Alternative Form
s1≈−0.220541,s2≈0.220541
Evaluate
s2×514−25
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
s2×514−25=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
514s2−25=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
514s2=0+25
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
514s2=25
Divide both sides
514514s2=51425
Divide the numbers
s2=51425
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
s=±51425
