-7 and 2 are factors of -14, and they make a sum of -5, therefore:
(x^2-7)(x^2+2)=0
x^=7 or x^=-2
x=√7 or-√7, x=√2i or x=-√2i

We are given equation: x^4-5x^2-14 = 0.

Now, we need to find the solutions of the given equation.

We need to solve given equation by factoring.

\mathrm{Rewrite\:the\:equation\:with\:}u=x^2\mathrm{\:and\:}u^2=x^4

u^2-5u-14=0

Let us factor the quadratic.

\mathrm{Break\:the\:expression\:into\:groups}

=\left(u^2+2u\right)+\left(-7u-14\right)

Factoring out GCF of each group.

=u\left(u+2\right)-7\left(u+2\right)

\mathrm{Factor\:out\:common\:term\:}u+2

=\left(u+2\right)\left(u-7\right)

Substituting back u=x^2.

\left(x^2+2\right)\left(x^2-7\right)=0

Applying zero product rule.

x^2+2=0

x^2=-2=>x=\sqrt{-2}=\sqrt{2}i, -\sqrt{2}i.

x^2-7=0

x^2=7=>x=\sqrt{7}=\sqrt{7}, -\sqrt{7}.

Therefore, solutions of the equation are:

\sqrt{2}i, -\sqrt{2}i,\sqrt{7}, -\sqrt{7}

Ok, so I'm pretty sure this one is 11.5 I just wanted to make sure with u guys! :)
Furkat [3]

Answer:

C: 23 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Area of trapezoid is: (base1 + base2)/2 x height

2) In this case, it is 14 + 8 which is 22. 22/2 is 11.

3) Now we have to do 253/11 which is 23 cm.

Hope this helps! :D
