Isn't it Overrated! Satvik?
Easier, perhaps, would be to let y = x 2 + 2 and note the quartic equation is then y 2 − 6 x y + 8 x 2 = ( y − 2 x ) ( y − 4 x ) = 0 . After that, proceed with checking discriminants and Vieta's.
typo in line 2. 8x became 8x^2
Nice solution Satvik , upvoted
( x 2 + 2 ) 2 + 8 x 2 = 6 x ( x 2 + 2 )
⇒ ( x 2 + 2 ) 2 − 6 x ( x 2 + 2 ) + 8 x 2 ( ( x 2 + 2 ) − 2 x ) ( ( x 2 + 2 ) − 4 x ) ( x 2 − 2 x + 2 ) ( x 2 − 4 x + 2 ) = 0 = 0 = 0
⇒ { x 2 − 2 x + 2 = 0 x 2 − 4 x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 1 ± i ⇒ x = 2 ± 2
Therefore, the sum of real roots are 2 + 2 + 2 − 2 = 4
Nice solution sir , upvoted
Done exactly the same way..well we need not find the roots...the first one has a discriminant less than zero so no real roots....in second one discriminant>0 so ans=negative of coeff of x=4
Considere x 2 + 2 = α , segue que,
α 2 + 8 x 2 = 6 x ⋅ α α 2 − 6 x ⋅ α + 8 x 2 = 0 ( α − 2 x ) ( α − 4 x ) = 0 Δ < 0 ( x 2 − 2 x + 2 ) ⋅ Δ > 0 ( x 2 − 4 x + 2 ) = 0
Daí, deve-se considerar apenas as raízes da equação x 2 − 4 x + 2 .
Isto posto,
Soma = a − b Soma = 1 − ( − 4 ) Soma = 4
Nice solution, upvoted
Better if written in english . . .
Let m = x 2 + 2
⇒ ( x 2 + 2 ) 2 + 8 x 2 − 6 x ( x 2 + 2 ) = m 2 − 6 x m + 8 x 2
m = 2 6 x ± ( − 6 x ) 2 − 4 ( 8 x 2 ) = 2 6 x ± 2 x = 4 x , 2 x
As m = x 2 + 2
x 2 + 2 = 4 x ⇒ x 2 + 2 − 4 x = 0 this solutions are x = 2 − 2 , 2 + 2
x 2 + 2 = 2 x ⇒ x 2 + 2 − 2 x = 0 this one has complex solutions
Therefore the sum of real root are 2 − 2 + 2 + 2 = 4
Nice solution upvoted

We have ( x 2 + 2 ) 2 + 8 x = 6 x ( x 2 + 2 ) .
Rearranging gives us ( x 2 + 2 ) 2 − 6 x ( x 2 + 2 ) + 8 x 2 = 0
Solving it as a Quadratic in ( x 2 + 2 ) , by the Sridharacharya's Rules gives- ( x 2 + 2 ) = 2 6 x ± 3 6 x 2 − 3 2 x 2
Simplifying, we get x 2 − 4 x + 2 = 0 or x 2 − 2 x + 2 = 0 .
The former gives us 2 real roots adding up, by Vieta's Relation, to 4 , and the latter has no real roots.
Thus, the sum of the real roots of the given equation is 4 .
