Question

If f(x) = 4x^4 - 5x + 1, which of the following contains exactly all the zeros of f(x)?

a) (-1, 2)
b) (-1, 2, -2)
c) (-1, 7, -7, 2)
d) {1, 2, -1, -2}

Answer 1

The zeros of f(x) = 4x^4 - 5x + 1 do not match any of the given answer choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of a function f(x) correspond to the values of x for which f(x) equals zero.

To find the zeros of f(x) = 4x^4 - 5x + 1, we set f(x) equal to zero and solve for x.

4x^4 - 5x + 1 = 0

This equation does not have a simple factored form, so we need to use numerical methods to find the zeros. None of the answer choices provided exactly match the zeros of the function.

Therefore, the correct answer is none of the given answer choices.
