Answer:

The solutions are

x = -1, 1, -2√2, and 2√2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

x^4 - 9x² + 8 = 0

Let u = x², then the equation becomes

u² - 9u + 8 = 0

u² - u - 8u + 8 = 0

(u² - u) - (8u - 8u) = 0

u(u - 1) - 8(u - 1) = 0

(u - 8)(u - 1) = 0

u - 8 = 0

=> u = 8

Or

u - 1 = 0

=> u = 1

For u = 8

=> x² = 8

=> x = ±√8 = ±2√2

For u = 1

=> x² = 1

=> x = ±√1 = ± 1
