(x-3)⁴-3(x-3)²-10=0
To solve this equation, we can substitute a new variable. Let's denote (x-3) as t:
t⁴-3t²-10=0
Now, we have a quadratic equation in terms of t. We can solve it by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
(t²-5)(t²+2)=0
From this, we get two equations:
t²-5=0, which gives t=±√5.
t²+2=0, which has no real solutions.
Now, substitute back t=(x-3):
(x-3)²=±√5
To solve for x, take the square root of both sides:
x-3=±√(±√5)
Finally, solve for x:
x=3±√(±√5)
