Question

Solve the following for x, where |x| is modulus function, [x] is greatest integer function, [x] is a fractional part function.

x2 + 7 |x| + 12 = 0

Sum

Solution

x2 + 7 |x| + 12 = 0    ...(1)

Case 1:

Let x ≥ 0

∴ |x| = x

∴ equation (1) becomes x2 + 7x + 12 = 0

∴ (x + 4)(x + 3) = 0

∴ x = – 4 or x = – 3

But x ≥ 0

∴ for x ≥ 0, there is no solution

Case 2:

Let x < 0

∴ |x| = – x

∴ equation (1) becomes x2 – 7x + 12 = 0

∴ (x – 3)(x – 4) = 0

∴ x = 3 or x = 4

But x < 0

∴ for x < 0, there is no solution

∴ the equation has no solution

∴ solution set is {  }.
