Answer:
x = ±5
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following polynomial function and we are to find all of its real roots:
[tex]x^4-24x^2-25[/tex]
Let [tex]y=x^2[/tex] so we can now write it as:
[tex]y^2-24y-25[/tex]
Factorizing it to get:
[tex](y^2+y)+(-25y-25)[/tex]
[tex]y\left(y+1\right)-25\left(y+1\right)[/tex]
[tex] \left ( y + 1 \right ) \left ( y - 2 5 \right)[/tex]
Substitute back [tex]y=x^2[/tex] to get:
[tex] \left ( x^2 + 1 \right ) \left ( x^2 - 25 \right ) [/tex]
[tex] \left ( x^2 + 1 \right ) \left ( x + 5 \right ) \left ( x - 5 \right ) [/tex]
The quadratic factor has only complex roots. Therefore, the real roots are x = ±5.
Answer:
The real roots are ±5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
f(x) = x^4 - 24x^2 - 25
To find the real roots
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
