Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
3x4−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3x4=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
3x4=2
Divide both sides
33x4=32
Divide the numbers
x4=32
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±432
