The equation $3x^4-5x^3+3x^2-4x+5=0$ is of the type

AnswerClick to flip back
A
None of the above
💡 Explanation:

Given equation is $3x^4-5x^3+3x^2-4x+5=0$ .... $(i)$

The maximum power of $x$ in this equation is $ 4$, so this is $4th$ degree equation  
So, $(i)$ is neither linear nor quadratic equation.
In reciprocal equation ($ ax^4 +bx^3 +cx^2 +dx +e = 0 $)  the multiplication of the roots i.e ($\dfrac{e}{a}$) should be  $1$
In the given equation $(i)$, $\dfrac{e}{a}  = \dfrac{5}{3}$  
So the multiplication of roots is not equal to one
Therefore, equation $(i)$ is not a reciprocal equation.
Hence, option D is correct.
