Find all zeros(both real and complex) of the function f(x)=x^4+4x^2-5
\n" ); document.write( "=(x^2+5)(x^2-1)
\n" ); document.write( "=(x+isqrt5)(x-isqrt5)(x+1)(x-1)
\n" ); document.write( "Zeroes are 1,-1,isqrt5,-isqrt5
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let # of 4-wheelers be W and # of bicycles be B:
\n" ); document.write( "B+W=46
\n" ); document.write( "2B+4W=146
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "B=46-W
\n" ); document.write( "2(46-W)+ 4W=146
\n" ); document.write( "92-2W+4W=146
\n" ); document.write( "2W=54
\n" ); document.write( "W=27 (# of 4-Wheelers)
\n" ); document.write( ")B=46-27=19 (# of bicycles)
