- Three conditions are given below. Write the quadratic equation for each of them satisfy that condition :(a) If discriminant \(\Delta = 0\)(b) If discriminant \(\Delta > 0\)(c) If discriminant \(\Delta < 0\) Answer: (a) x² - 6x + 9 = 0 (b) x² - 5x + 6 = 0 (c) x² + x + 1 = 0 (a) For Δ = 0 the roots are real and equal. Take (x - 3)² = 0 , i.e. x² -... 1
- If first term of an A.P. is ‘\(p\)’, second term is ‘\(q\)’ and last term is ‘\(r\)’, then show that the sum of all terms is \(\dfrac{(p + r)(q + r - 2p)}{2(q - p)}\). Answer (proof): first term a = p , second term t₂ = q , so d = q - p . Let the A.P. have n terms. The last term is r : r = a + (n - 1)d = p... 1
- For solving the simultaneous equations \(x + y = 3\), \(3x - 2y = 4\). Find the value of determinant D. Answer: C. –5 Answer: (C) –5 In the form ax + by = c , the coefficients are a₁ = 1, b₁ = 1 and a₂ = 3, b₂ = -2 . D = beginvmatrix 1 & 1 \\ 3... 1
- One of the roots of equation \(x^2 + mx - 5 = 0\) is 2, find the value of \(m\). Answer: C. 1/2 Answer: (C) 1/2 Substitute x = 2 in x² + mx - 5 = 0 : 4 + 2m - 5 = 0 ⇒ 2m - 1 = 0 ⇒ m = 1/2 . 1
