(D) Given the equation $|x|^2 - 7|x| + 12 = 0$.Let $|x| = t$,where $t \ge 0$.The equation becomes $t^2 - 7t + 12 = 0$.Factoring the quadratic equation: $(t - 4)(t - 3) = 0$.This gives $t = 4$ or $t = 3$.Substituting back $|x| = t$:Case $1$: $|x| = 4 \implies x = 4, -4$.Case $2$: $|x| = 3 \implies x = 3, -3$.Thus,the roots are $4, -4, 3, -3$.The total number of roots is $4$.
