Answer: The zeroes of the equation are x=1, 3/2, 5i, -5i.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation
![2x^4-5x^3+53x^2-125x+75=0](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/m4swfj0qbcnv078cb9209ctmyrl0i5mqet.png)
Applying rational roots theorem.
The constant term is 75 and leading coefficient is 2.
Factors of 75 are 1,3,5,15. and factors of 2 are 1, and 2.
Therefore, possible rational roots would be ±1,3,5,15,1/2, 3/2, 5/2 and 15/2.
Let us check first x=1 if it is a root or not.
Plugging x=1 in given equation, we get
would give us 0.
Therefore, first root would be x=1 so the first factor would be x-1.
Dividing given polynomial using syntactic division
________________________
1 | 2 -5 53 -125 75
2 -3 +50 -75
_______________________
2 -3 +50 -75 0
So the other factored polynomial, we get
![2x^3-3x^2+50x-75](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/c0jfxq18plcim5q2lx6j5r14stnp5j8977.png)
Factor it by grouping
![(2x^3-3x^2)+(50x-75)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/m2rmly60ej4ludxcqe9y85lsp0chef3ydh.png)
![x^2(2x-3) +25(2x-3)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/etl5o09iz1xxx9lcc7zkhuk26613ohz81b.png)
![(2x-3)(x^2+25).](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/357j9rqdwg1hogtahdvj3pz5q7sznghapu.png)
Setting each of the factors equal to 0, we get
2x-3=0
2x=3
x= 3/2.
![x^2+25 =0.](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/5u9w0bros9vlp9hxtejanmhpb6h7o2wrmv.png)
![x^2 = -25.](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/high-school/irq5ubw41cz7k8wsq28hfp51k571ss08vi.png)
Taking square root on both sides, we get
x = ±5i
Therefore, the zeroes of the equation are x=1, 3/2, 5i, -5i.
