Basically we are asked to find the range of $$x$$ for which $$x^3-4x^5<0$$ is true.

$$x^3-4x^5<0$$ --> $$x^3(1-4x^2)<0$$ --> $$(1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)<0$$ --> roots are -1/2, 0, and 1/2 --> $$-\frac{1}{2}<x<0$$ or $$x>\frac{1}{2}$$.

Hi Bunuel

I'm getting D as answer :

x^3(1-2x)(1+2x) < 0

$$-ve --- -1/2---- +ve--- 0----- -ve-----1/2--- +ve$$
Could you please explain where I'm wrong ?

Even though your question is directed to Bunuel, I will give a quick explanation.

The concept of the rightmost section being positive is applicable when every term is positive in the rightmost region. This is the case whenever the expressions involved are of the form (x - a) or (ax - b) etc. When you have a term such as (1-2x), the rightmost region becomes negative. So either, as Bunuel mentioned, check for an extreme value of x or convert (1-2x) to (2x - 1) and flip the sign to >.

Check the link in my previous post. There are beautiful explanations by gurpreetsingh and Karishma. General idea is as follows: We have: $$(1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)<0$$ --> roots are -1/2, 0, and 1/2 (equate the expressions to zero to get the roots and list them in ascending order), this gives us 4 ranges: $$x<-\frac{1}{2}$$, $$-\frac{1}{2}<x<0$$, $$0<x<\frac{1}{2}$$ and $$x>\frac{1}{2}$$ --> now, test some extreme value: for example if $$x$$ is very large number than first two terms ((1+2x) and x) will be positive but the third term will be negative which gives the negative product, so when $$x>\frac{1}{2}$$ the expression is negative. Now the trick: as in the 4th range expression is negative then in 3rd it'll be positive, in 2nd it'l be negative again and finally in 1st it'll be positive: + - + -. So, the ranges when the expression is negative are: $$-\frac{1}{2}<x<0$$ (2nd range) or $$x>\frac{1}{2}$$ (4th range). Hope its clear. _________________ Current Student Status: Final Lap Up!!!

Responding to a pm:
The problem is the same here.
How do you solve this inequality: $$(1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)<0$$

Again, there are 2 ways -
The long algebraic method: When is $$(1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)$$ negative? When only one of the terms is negative or all 3 are negative. There will be too many cases to consider so this is painful.

The number line method: Multiply both sides of $$(1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)<0$$ by -1 to get $$(2x + 1)*x^3*(2x - 1)>0$$
Take out 2 common to get $$2(x + 1/2)*x^3*2(x - 1/2)>0$$ [because you want each term to be of the form (x + a) or (x - a)]
Now plot them on the number line and get the regions where this inequality holds.
Basically, you need to go through this entire post: inequalities-trick-91482.html

Answer: C. Check this for more: inequalities-trick-91482.html Hi Bunuel, I tried the trick, however using the equation I am getting different ranges. below is what I did .. 1) f(x) <0 2) roots are -1/2 , 0, 1/2 - (-1/2) + 0 - 1/2 + starting from + from right. now as per this x< -1/2 and 0<x<1/2 can you advice where I went wrong... The factors must be of the form (x - a), (x - b) etc. Notice that one factor here is of the form (1 - 2x). You need to change this. $$(1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)<0$$ $$2(x + 1/2)*x^3*2(x - 1/2) > 0$$ (note the sign flip) Now the factors are of the form required and it is clear that the transition points are -1/2, 0, 1/2. The required range is x > 1/2 or -1/2 < x< 0 _________________ Karishma Veritas Prep | GMAT Instructor My Blog Get started with Veritas Prep GMAT On Demand for$199

I flipped the sign before. So I got x^3(2x-1)(2x-1) > 0

2 cases - both +ve or both -ve

case 1
-------
x > 0 and |x| > 1/2. Hence x > 1/2

case 2
------
x < 0 and 4x^2 - 1 < 0
x < 0 and -1/2 < x < 1/2
Taking the most restrictive value-
-1/2 < x < 0

I hope this is correct. Btw this is 750 level in 2 mins.

Yes, it is correct... and since you know what you are doing, you will need to work very hard to fall short of time on GMAT.

x^3 – 4x^5 < 0
x^3(1-4x^2) < 0
(1-4x^2) < 0
1 < 4x^2
√1 < √4x^2
(when you take the square root of 4x^2 you take the square root of a square so...)
1 < |2x|

1<(2x)
1/2 < x
OR
1<-2x
-1/2>x

I am still a bit confused as to how we get 0. I see how it is done with the "root" method but my way of solving was just a bit different. Any thoughts?

The step in red above is your problem. How did you get rid of x^3? Can you divide both sides by x^3 when you have an inequality? You don't know whether x^3 is positive or negative. If you divide both sides by x^3 and x^3 is negative, the sign will flip. So you must retain the x^3 and that will give you 3 transition points (-1/2, 0 , 1/2)
Even in equations, it is not a good idea to cancel off x from both sides. You might lose a solution in that case x = 0
e.g.
x(x - 1) = 0
(x - 1) = 0
x = 1 (Incomplete)

x(x-1) = 0
x = 0 or 1 (Correct)

So how do you convert (1 - 2x) into (2x - 1)? You multiply by -1. Say, if you have 1-2x < 0, and you multiply both sides by -1, you get -1*(1 - 2x) > (-1)*0 (note here that the inequality sign flips because you are multiplying by a negative number) -1*(1 - 2x) > (-1)*0 -1 + 2x > 0 (2x -1) > 0 So you converted the factor to x - a form. In case you have x^3 ( 2x+1) ( 1-2x )<0, you will multiply both sides by -1 to get x^3 ( 2x+1) ( 2x - 1 ) > 0 (inequality sign flips) _________________ Karishma Veritas Prep | GMAT Instructor My Blog Get started with Veritas Prep GMAT On Demand for$199

A question - what is the best way u use to know if the "good" area is above or below?

i mean - what was the best way for u to know that its between -1/2 to 0

i used numbers ex. 1/4 but it consumes time! is there any better technique?

|x| > 1/2 means that x<-1/2 or x>1/2.

The range you wrote is wrong also because x<-1/2 and x < 0 doesn't makes any sense.

Hi All,

Could I conclude that for this case i.e (1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)<0
even if one of the terms <0, that does not necessarily mean that the entire product of the 3 terms <0.
Cause like if the eq was (1+2x)*x^3*(1-2x)= 0 ....I could have safely concluded that
However in this case for the entire product <0.. either 1 terms or 2 terms or even all 3 terms can be - ve.
