-6y2+24=0
Subtract 24 from both sides of the equation.
-6y2=-24
Divide each term in -6y2=-24 by -6.
-6y2-6=-24-6
Cancel the common factor of -6.
Cancel the common factor.
-6y2-6=-24-6
Divide y2 by 1.
y2=-24-6
y2=-24-6
Divide -24 by -6.
y2=4
y2=4
Take the square root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the left side.
y=±4
Simplify the right side of the equation.
Rewrite 4 as 22.
y=±22
Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.
y=±2
y=±2
The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.
First, use the positive value of the ± to find the first solution.
y=2
Next, use the negative value of the ± to find the second solution.
y=-2
The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.
y=2,-2
y=2,-2
y=2,-2
Solve for y -6y^2+24=0
