A quartic equation is an algebraic equation of the form
These types of equations are extremely hard to solve; however, there are very clever methods for solving them by bringing it down to a cubic. I am going to list the simplest of the five. Also, if you only want the final results, the "TLDR" subsections give these results.

Solving Quartic Equations
Bringing it down to a depressed quartic
Start with the equation
Divide both sides by a:
Now, convert to a depressed quartic by substituting
.
We now have:

Descartes' Solution
René Descartes thought of factoring the depressed quartic into two quadratics: . Expanding the right-hand side gives
, simplifying to
. Equating coefficients gives the following system of equations:
from which we derive and substitute this:
Now eliminate and
by doing the following:
Substitute to get
This can be solved via the cubic formula. After is obtained, we have
and can now solve for
and
:
Solve for t and v
We have the system of equations . We can obtain
and
. Similarly,
.
Now that both factors have been obtained, we can solve for by using the quadratic formula on each of the factors. The two solutions for the quadratics combined form the four solutions of the depressed quartic; subtract

The Quartic Formula
Be prepared: This formula is TOTO SLOT really complicated.
I also don't suggest memorizing this formula, since it is too complex to do so. Even if you can, it is very hard to use. You should be better off if you follow the process and break everything into easy steps.
We are going to keep using and
in the derivation; in the final formula we rewrite it in terms of

So, we start with .
We factor it into two quadratics: .
We have obtained . With

, according to the cubic formula,
Already messy. Therefore,
Then we rewrite these rather large expressions in terms of and
We simplify the expression and get the quartic formula:
