Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 8

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given equation is \(x^{10}-3 x^8+5 x^6-5 x^4+3 x^2-1=0\) Let \(f(x)=x^{10}-3 x^8+5 x^6-5 x^4+3 x^2-1\). It has a even degree 10 then the graph of the given function would be symmetrical about \(y\)-axis. Put \(x=0,1,-1\) in \(f(x)\).…
