Question
Factor the expression
(w2−45)(w2+45)
Evaluate
w4−2025
Rewrite the expression in exponential form
(w2)2−452
Solution
(w2−45)(w2+45)
Show Solution

Find the roots
w1=−35,w2=35
Alternative Form
w1≈−6.708204,w2≈6.708204
Evaluate
w4−2025
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
w4−2025=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
w4=0+2025
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
w4=2025
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
w=±42025
Simplify the expression
