Thanks.. Caroline Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve:
x^4 - 10x^2 + 25 = 0 This can be factored into:
(x^2 - 5)(x^2 - 5) = 0 Apply the zero products principle:
x^2 - 5 = 0; x^2 = 5; so x = +-sqrt(5)
So you really get four roots:
Two of them are: and the other two are:
