16 x 2 − 81 = 0 ( 4 x ) 2 − 9 2 = 0 ( 4 x − 9 ) ( 4 x + 9 ) = 0 ⟺ 4 x − 9 = 0 ∨ 4 x + 9 = 0 4 x = 9 ∨ 4 x = − 9 x = 4 9 ∨ x = − 4 9
or 16 x 2 − 81 = 0 16 x 2 = 81 / : 16 x 2 = 16 81 x = ± 16 81 x = − 16 81 ∨ x = 16 81 x = − 4 9 ∨ x = 4 9
16x^2-81=0 (4x-9)(4x+9) x=9/4 or x=-9/4
The solutions to the quadratic equation 16 x 2 − 81 = 0 are x = 4 9 and x = − 4 9 . This is obtained by isolating x 2 and taking the square root of both sides. Hence, we have two possible values for x.
