Step by Step Solution
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Step 2 :
Pulling out like terms :
2.1 Pull out like factors :
-x23 - 1 = -1 • (x23 + 1)
Equation at the end of step 2 :
-x23 - 1 = 0
Step 3 :
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
3.1 Solve : -x23-1 = 0
Add 1 to both sides of the equation :
-x23 = 1
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : x23 = -1
x = 23rd root of (-1)
Negative numbers have real 23th roots.
23rd root of (-1) = 23√ -1• 1 = 23√ -1 • 23√ 1 =(-1)•23√ 1
The equation has one real solution, a negative number This solution is x = negative
