Answer:

The real roots are  ±5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

f(x) = x^4 - 24x^2 - 25

<u>To find the real roots</u>

Let x^4 - 24x^2 - 25 = 0 ----(1)

Take y = x^2

Then eq (1) becomes,

y^2 - 24y - 25 = 0

By using splitting method we can write,

y^2 + y - 25y - 25 = 0

y(y + 1) - 25(y +1) = 0

(y + 1)(y - 25) = 0

(x^2 + 1 )(x^2 - 25) = 0

From (x^2 + 1 ) we get complex roots

x^2 = -1

x = √-1

x - 25 = 0 we get real roots

x = 25

x = ±5

Therefore the real roots are  ±5

<u>Answer:</u>

x = ±5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following polynomial function and we are to find all of its real roots:

x^4-24x^2-25

Let y=x^2 so we can now write it as:

y^2-24y-25

Factorizing it to get:

(y^2+y)+(-25y-25)

y\left(y+1\right)-25\left(y+1\right)

\left ( y + 1 \right ) \left ( y - 2 5 \right)

Substitute back y=x^2 to get:

\left ( x^2 + 1 \right ) \left ( x^2 - 25 \right )

\left ( x^2 + 1 \right ) \left ( x + 5 \right ) \left ( x - 5 \right )

The quadratic factor has only complex roots. Therefore, the real roots are x = ±5.

Both 2 and 5 are common factors of a number. The number in between 101 and 118. What is the number? Give a reason for your answe
Deffense [45]
110
2 and 5 are prime and thus share no common factors. The lowest common multiple of 2 and 5 is therefore 2 x 5 = 10. 

Your answer must be a multiple of 10 and there is only one answer in that range that fits. 

Double-check: 
110 / 2 = 55 r. 0 
110 / 5 = 22 r. 0
