Use the method described in Relating Concepts Exercises 67–70 if applicable to solve each expiation or inequality.

| x4 + 2x2 + 1| ≥ 0

Exercise 67

For individual or collaborative investigation

To see how to solve an equation that involves the absolute value of a quadratic polynomial, such as |x2x | = 6, work Exercise in order.

For x2x to have an absolute value equal to 6, what are the two possible values that it may be? (Hint: One is positive and the other is negative.)

Exercise 68

For individual or collaborative investigation

To see how to solve an equation that involves the absolute value of a quadratic polynomial, such as |x2x | = 6, work Exercise in order.

Write an equation stating that x2x is equal to the positive value you found in Exercise 67, and solve it using factoring.

Exercise 69

For individual or collaborative investigation

To see how to solve an equation that involves the absolute value of a quadratic polynomial, such as |x2x | = 6, work Exercise in order.

Write an equation stating that x2x is equal to the negative value you found in Exercise 67, and solve it using the quadratic formula. (Hint: The solutions arc not real numbers.)

Exercise 70

For individual or collaborative investigation

To see how to solve an equation that involves the absolute value of a quadratic polynomial, such as |x2x | = 6, work Exercise in order.

Give the complete sojution set of |x2x| = 6, using the results from Exercises 68 and 69.
