Question
Solve the inequality
x∈(−55,0)∪(0,55)
Evaluate
x2×5x4<x2
Multiply
More Steps

Evaluate
x2×5x4
Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents
x2+4×5
Add the numbers
x6×5
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
5x6
5x6<x2
Raise both sides of the inequality to the power of 2
5x6<(x2)2
Evaluate the power
More Steps

Evaluate
(x2)2
Transform the expression
x2×2
Multiply the numbers
x4
5x6<x4
Move the expression to the left side
5x6−x4<0
Factor the expression
x4(5x2−1)<0
Separate the inequality into 2 possible cases
{x4>05x2−1<0{x4<05x2−1>0
Solve the inequality
More Steps

Evaluate
x4>0
Since the left-hand side is always positive or 0,and the right-hand side is always 0,the statement is true for any value of x,except when x4=0
x4=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=0
Exclude the impossible values of x
x=0
{x=05x2−1<0{x4<05x2−1>0
Solve the inequality
More Steps

Evaluate
5x2−1<0
Move the constant to the right side
5x2<1
Divide both sides
55x2<51
Divide the numbers
x2<51
Take the 2-th root on both sides of the inequality
x2<51
Calculate
∣x∣<55
Separate the inequality into 2 possible cases
{x<55x>−55
Find the intersection
−55<x<55
{x=0−55<x<55{x4<05x2−1>0
Since the left-hand side is always positive or 0,and the right-hand side is always 0,the statement is false for any value of x
{x=0−55<x<55{x∈/R5x2−1>0
Solve the inequality
More Steps

Evaluate
5x2−1>0
Move the constant to the right side
5x2>1
Divide both sides
55x2>51
Divide the numbers
x2>51
Take the 2-th root on both sides of the inequality
x2>51
Calculate
∣x∣>55
Separate the inequality into 2 possible cases
x>55x<−55
Find the union
x∈(−∞,−55)∪(55,+∞)
{x=0−55<x<55{x∈/Rx∈(−∞,−55)∪(55,+∞)
Find the intersection
x∈(−55,0)∪(0,55){x∈/Rx∈(−∞,−55)∪(55,+∞)
Find the intersection
x∈(−55,0)∪(0,55)x∈/R
