\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x^2-4\right)^2-\left(7x+4\right)^2=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x^2-4-7x-4\right)\left(x^2-4+7x+4\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x^2-7x-8\right)\left(x^2+7x\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x\left(x+7\right)\left(x^2-8x+x-8\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x\left(x+7\right)\left[x\left(x-8\right)+\left(x-8\right)\right]=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x\left(x+7\right)\left(x-8\right)\left(x+1\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=0\\x+7=0\\x-8=0\\x+1=0\end{matrix}\right.\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=0\\x=-7\\x=8\\x=-1\end{matrix}\right.\)
Vậy: S={0;-7;8;-1}
2) Ta có: \(x^3-8x^2+17x-10=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x^3-2x^2-6x^2+12x+5x-10=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x^2\left(x-2\right)-6x\left(x-2\right)+5\left(x-2\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left(x^2-6x+5\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left(x^2-x-5x+5\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left(x-1\right)\left(x-5\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x-2=0\\x-1=0\\x-5=0\end{matrix}\right.\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=2\\x=1\\x=5\end{matrix}\right.\)
Vậy: S={2;1;5}
3) Ta có: \(2x^3-5x^2-x+6=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow2x^3-4x^2-x^2+2x-3x+6=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow2x^2\left(x-2\right)-x\left(x-2\right)-3\left(x-2\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left(2x^2-x-3\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left(2x^2-3x+2x-3\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left[x\left(2x-3\right)+\left(2x-3\right)\right]=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(x-2\right)\left(2x-3\right)\left(x+1\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x-2=0\\2x-3=0\\x+1=0\end{matrix}\right.\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=2\\2x=3\\x=-1\end{matrix}\right.\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=2\\x=\frac{3}{2}\\x=-1\end{matrix}\right.\)
Vậy: \(S=\left\{2;\frac{3}{2};-1\right\}\)
4) Ta có: \(4x^4-4x^2-3=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow4x^4-6x^2+2x^2-3=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow2x^2\left(2x^2-3\right)+\left(2x^2-3\right)=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(2x^2-3\right)\left(2x^2+1\right)=0\)
mà \(2x^2+1>0\forall x\in R\)
nên \(2x^2-3=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow2x^2=3\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x^2=\frac{3}{2}\)
hay \(x=\pm\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}\)
Vậy: \(S=\left\{\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}};-\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}\right\}\)
