how many solutions does x^2 + 4lxl + 3 =0 has?
since every term in the given equation is positive, therefore neglecting modulus, we have- x^2 +4x+3=0 solving by splitting middle term or by using quadratic formulae, we get- (x+3)(x+1)=0 or, x=-3 and x=-1 putting these values in original equation we get- 24 and 8, which are no solutions to the given equation. therefore given equation has no real solution. enjoy, AJ

we can solve the question by this method also, which i perfer is better. lets go this way- we have- x^2+4|x|+3=0, in this all the term are positive, and x^2 can be written as |x|^2, because both represent positive values. therefore equation becomes- |x|^2+4|x|+3=0 let |x| be t=a variable t,we have- t^2+4t+3=0 then by solving by splitting middle term- t^2+3t +t+3=0 or t=-3 and t=-1 i.e |x|=-1 and -3 , which is not possible, therefore no possible solutions. Hope this helps AJ
