Solution

Break Down the Problem

  1. We need to analyze the inequality x4+5<0 x^4 + 5 < 0 .
  2. Determine the feasible values of x x that can satisfy the inequality.

Relevant Concepts

  1. Understanding the Function: The function x4 x^4 is always non-negative for all real numbers x x , because the fourth power of any real number is either zero or positive.
  2. Constant Term: The constant term in this inequality is +5 +5 , which is also positive.

Analysis and Detail

  1. The expression x4+5 x^4 + 5 will always yield a value greater than or equal to 5 for any real x x because: x40x4+50+5=5 x^4 \geq 0 \Rightarrow x^4 + 5 \geq 0 + 5 = 5
  2. Therefore, x4+5 x^4 + 5 can never be less than 0.

Verify and Summarize

  1. Since x4+5 x^4 + 5 is always greater than or equal to 5, there are no values of x x that can satisfy the inequality x4+5<0 x^4 + 5 < 0 .

Final Answer

C. no values of x x
