(C) Given the equation: $x^2-5|x|-14=0$.Since $x^2 = |x|^2$,we can rewrite the equation as:$|x|^2-5|x|-14=0$.Let $t = |x|$,where $t \geq 0$. The equation becomes $t^2-5t-14=0$.Factoring the quadratic: $(t-7)(t+2)=0$.This gives $t=7$ or $t=-2$.Since $t = |x| \geq 0$,we reject $t=-2$.Thus,$|x|=7$,which implies $x=7$ or $x=-7$.Both roots are real. Therefore,there are exactly two real roots.
