X^-4-5x^2+4=0

Solution for X^-4-5x^2+4=0 equation:

X^-4-5X^2+4=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-5X^2+X=0

a = -5; b = 1; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 12-4·(-5)·0
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)-1}{2*-5}=\frac{-2}{-10}
=1/5
$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)+1}{2*-5}=\frac{0}{-10}
=0
