The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \[ \left| x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)} \right| = -x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)}, \] we will analyze both sides step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the left-hand side The left-hand side of the equation is \[ \left| x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)} \right|. \] Since the absolute value of any expression is always non-negative, we have: \[ \left| x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)} \right| \geq 0. \] ### Step 2: Analyze the right-hand side The right-hand side of the equation is \[ -x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)}. \] This expression can be negative or zero depending on the value of \(x\). ### Step 3: Set conditions for equality For the equation to hold, we need: \[ \left| x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)} \right| = -x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)}. \] Since the left-hand side is always non-negative, the right-hand side must also be non-positive. Therefore, both sides can only be equal if they are equal to zero: \[ \left| x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)} \right| = 0. \] ### Step 4: Solve for when the left-hand side equals zero The left-hand side equals zero when: \[ x^4 \cdot 3^{|x-2|} \cdot 5^{(x-1)} = 0. \] Since \(3^{|x-2|}\) and \(5^{(x-1)}\) are both positive for all real \(x\), the only way for the product to equal zero is if: \[ x^4 = 0. \] ### Step 5: Find integral solutions The equation \(x^4 = 0\) has only one solution: \[ x = 0. \] ### Conclusion Thus, the number of integral values of \(x\) satisfying the original equation is: \[ \boxed{1}. \]
