The number of real solutions of `|x|+2sqrt(5-4x-x^2)=16`is/area. 6b. 1 c.0 d. 4A. 6B. 1C. 0D. 4

Answer» Correct Answer - 3
We have
`2sqrt(5 - 4x - x^(2)) = 16 - |x|`
`rArr 4(5 - 4x - x^(2)) = 256 - 32|x| + x^(2)`
`rArr 5x^(2) - 32|x| + 16x + 236 = 0`
`rArr 5x^(2) - 16x + 236 = 0`, when `x ge 0`
and `5x^(2) + 48x + 236 = 0`, when `x lt 0`.
In both cases, equation has non-real roots.
