Evaluate

x \times 2 - 130 x - 900

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

x \times 2 - 130 x - 900 = 0

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms

2 x - 130 x - 900 = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

Simplify

2 x - 130 x

Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients

(2 - 130) x

Subtract the numbers

- 128 x

- 128 x - 900 = 0

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

- 128 x = 0 + 900

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

- 128 x = 900

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

128 x = - 900

Divide both sides

\frac{128 x}{128} = \frac{- 900}{128}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{- 900}{128}

Solution

More Steps

Evaluate

\frac{- 900}{128}

Cancel out the common factor 4

\frac{- 225}{32}

Use \frac{- a}{b} = \frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b} to rewrite the fraction

- \frac{225}{32}

x = - \frac{225}{32}

Alternative Form

x = - 7.03125
