Solve t^28-625 - ScanMath

Question

Simplify the expression

8 t^{2} - 625

Evaluate

t^{2} \times 8 - 625

Solution

8 t^{2} - 625

Show Solution

t_{1} = - \frac{25 2}{4}, t_{2} = \frac{25 2}{4}

Alternative Form

t_{1} \approx - 8.838835, t_{2} \approx 8.838835

Evaluate

t^{2} \times 8 - 625

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

t^{2} \times 8 - 625 = 0

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms

8 t^{2} - 625 = 0

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

8 t^{2} = 0 + 625

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

8 t^{2} = 625

Divide both sides

\frac{8 t ^{2}}{8} = \frac{625}{8}

Divide the numbers

t^{2} = \frac{625}{8}

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

t = \pm \frac{625}{8}

\frac{25 2}{4}

t = \pm \frac{25 2}{4}

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

t = \frac{25 2}{4} t = - \frac{25 2}{4}

Solution

t_{1} = - \frac{25 2}{4}, t_{2} = \frac{25 2}{4}

Alternative Form

t_{1} \approx - 8.838835, t_{2} \approx 8.838835
