Solve : `x^(2) = {x}`, where `{x}` represents the fractional part function.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We have `x^(2)= {x}`.
Draw the graphs of `y= x^(2) and y = {x}` to locate the points of intersection.

From the graphs, it is clear that one root is `x=0`
Both graphs intersect once in `x in (-1, 0)`.
Solving for this interval, we have `x^(2) = x+1 or x^(2) -x-1=0`.
`therefore " "x=(1-sqrt5)/(2)`
Hence the are two roots `x=0 and x= (1-sqrt5)/(2)`.
