Find the roots
a_{1}=-\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170},a_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170}
Alternative Form
a_{1}\approx -0.0343,a_{2}\approx 0.0343
Evaluate
a^{2}\times 850-1
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
a^{2}\times 850-1=0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
850a^{2}-1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
850a^{2}=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
850a^{2}=1
Divide both sides
\frac{850a^{2}}{850}=\frac{1}{850}
Divide the numbers
a^{2}=\frac{1}{850}
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
a=\pm \sqrt{\frac{1}{850}}

Evaluate
5\sqrt{34}\times \sqrt{34}
When a square root of an expression is multiplied by itself,the result is that expression
5\times 34
Multiply the terms
170
\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170}
a=\pm \frac{\sqrt{34}}{170}
\text{Separate the equation into }2\text{ possible cases}
\begin{align}&a=\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170}\\&a=-\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170}\end{align}
Solution
a_{1}=-\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170},a_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{34}}{170}
Alternative Form
a_{1}\approx -0.0343,a_{2}\approx 0.0343
