put this solution on YOUR website! Can you please help me solve this equation
10x4 – 30x3 – 50x – 20
First of all it isn't an equation. It's an expression.
Equations have equal signs. Yours doesn't. If you meant
to solve this equation:
10x4 – 30x4 – 50x – 20 = 0
Then it can be divided through by 10:
x4 - 3x3 - 5x - 2 = 0
It does not factor, so the only practical way to solve
it is by a graphical calculator.
The two real solutions are approximately:
-.3667762967 and 3.464630077
The two conjugate imaginary solutions are approximately
-.0469268904 ± 1.253589667i
