The sum of all possible values of x satisfying the equation $$2^{4x^{2}}-2^{2x^{2}+x+16}+2^{2x+30}=0$$, is
It is given thatΒ $$2^{4x^{2}}-2^{2x^{2}+x+16}+2^{2x+30}=0$$, which can be written as:
=>$$\left(2^{2x^2}\right)^2-2^{2x^2}\cdot2^{x+15}\cdot2^1+\left(2^{x+15}\right)^{^2}=0$$
=>Β $$\left(2^{2x^2}-2^{x+15}\right)^{^2}=0$$
=>Β $$2^{2x^2}-2^{x+15}=0$$ (SinceΒ $$\left(a-b\right)^2\ =\ 0\ =>\ a-b\ =0$$)
=>Β $$2x^2\ =\ x+15$$
=>Β $$2x^2-x-15=0$$Β
=>Β $$2x^2-6x+5x-15=0$$
=>Β $$2x\left(x-3\right)+5\left(x-3\right)=0$$
=>Β $$\left(2x+5\right)\left(x-3\right)\ =\ 0$$
Hence, the possible values of x areΒ $$-\frac{5}{2}$$, andΒ $$3$$, respectively.
Therefore, the sum of the possible values isΒ $$\left(3-\frac{5}{2}\right)=\frac{1}{2}$$
The correct option is D
