That's a quadratic equation in x^2, which means we get an extra square root and \pm at the end.

x^4 - x^2 - 42 = 0

We factor,

(x^2 - 7)(x^2+6) = 0

x^2 = 7 \quad \textrm{or} \quad x^2 = -6

x = \pm \sqrt{7} \quad \textrm{or} \quad x = \pm i \sqrt{6}

Which are solutions of the equation 4x2 – 7x = 3x + 24? Check all that apply.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

{-3/2, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use synthetic division here.  If the remainder is 0, then the divisor is a root or solution.

Here we have x = -4.  Perform the synthetic division as follows:

-4       4     -10    -24

                 -16     108

------------------------------

          4      -26     84              The remainder is 84, which tells us -4 is NOT

                                                a root/solution.

Try -3/2 as divisor this time:

-3/2    4     -10    -24

                   -6    24

------------------------------

          4      -16       0            Remainder is 0, so -3/2 is a solution

Show in the same manner that 4 is a solution also.  Or determine whether x - 4 satisfies 4x - 16 = 0 (it does).
