ANSWER

Last option

EXPLANATION

The given equation is


4 {x}^(5) - 12 {x}^(4) + 6x = 5 {x}^(3) - 2x

We can form a system of equations by equating each side of the equation to y.

Equating the left hand side to y, we get


y = 4 {x}^(5) - 12 {x}^(4) + 6x...(1)

Equating the right hand side to y gives


y= 5 {x}^(3) - 2x...(2)To find the solution to


4 {x}^(5) - 12 {x}^(4) + 6x = 5 {x}^(3) - 2x

We graph the two equations and locate the x-values of their points of intersection.

The last option is the correct answer
