x 4 − x ≤ 0
x ( x 3 − 1 ) ≤ 0
So we have two ecuations x 3 − 1 ≤ 0 and x ≤ 0
If x ≤ 0 is true then x ( x 3 − 1 ) ≤ 0 is fake because if x < 0 then x 3 − 1 it wil be a negative number, and when we multiply two negative numbers, the result is a positive number and we need a negative number
If x 3 − 1 ≤ 0 is true we have two options, when x 3 − 1 = 0 and when x 3 − 1 < 0 , if x 3 − 1 = 0 is true, then x = 1 so te original ecuation it will be true. And if x 3 − 1 < 0 is true then this factor become negative, and when we have x ( x 3 − 1 ) ≤ 0 if x 3 − 1 is negative then when we multiply x and x 3 − 1 the result it will be a negative number, so − x ≤ 0 and x ≥ 0
So x 3 − 1 ≤ 0 is true, then x 3 ≤ 1 and x ≤ 1 and we have x ≥ 0 so 0 ≤ x ≤ 1
And the interval is [0,1] then the answer is 0.1
