Answer» `{:(a,b,c,d),(q,s,R,p):}` From the graph, it is clear it will have two real roots. q. SEE the graphs of `y=2^(cosx) and y=|sinx|.`Two curves meet at four points for ` x in [0, 2pi].` So, the equation `2^(cosx)=|sinx|` has four solutions. r.Given that `f(|x|)-0` has 8 real roots or `f(x)=0` has four positive roots. Since `f(x)` is a polynomialof degree `5, f(x)` cannot have even number of real roots. Hence, `f(x)` has all the five roots real and ONE root is negative. s.`7^(|x|)(|5-|x|)=1.` `or|5-|x||=7^(-|x|)` Draw the graph of `y=7^(-|x|) and y=|5-|x||.` From the graph, the number of roots is 4. |
