Instant roots Step breakdowns Shareable URLs Type: Linear
Formula reference
Linear
ax + b = 0
Quadratic
x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a
Cubic
ax³ + bx² + cx + d = 0
Example: x² - 5x + 6 = 0

Choose equation type

Pick the degree you want to focus on.

Enter equation

Use standard algebraic notation. Supports x² and x^2.

We move all terms to the left side and solve for x.

How it works

  • We normalize your equation into the standard form and identify coefficients.
  • For quadratics, we compute the discriminant to classify the roots.
  • For cubics, we approximate a real root and reduce the polynomial for remaining roots.

Equation tips

Linear

Solve by isolating x: x = -b/a.

Quadratic

Discriminant Δ = b² - 4ac tells the root type.

Cubic

Find a real root, then solve the remaining quadratic.
