Sum of the roots of a quadratic equation is double their product. Find k if equation x2 – 4kx + k + 3 = 0

योग

उत्तर

Let the root be α and β

According to the given condition

α + β = 2 α.β

α + β = `(-b)/a`  αβ = `c/a`

`(-b)/a` = 2 `c/a`

- b = 2c   ...(i)

Compare with ax2 + bx + c = 0

x2 - 4kx + k + 3 = 0

a = 1, b = -4k, c = k + 3

Substituting the values in equation (i)

-b = 2c

-(-4k) = 2 (k + 3)

∴ 4k = 2k + 6

∴ 4k - 2k = 6

∴ 2k = 6

∴ k = `6/2`

∴ k = 3

Complete the following activity to solve the given word problem. The Sum of squares of two consecutive even natural numbers is 244, then find those numbers.

Activity: Let the first even natural number be x
Therefore its consecutive even natural number will be = (______)
By the given condition,
x2 + (x + 2)2 = 244
x2 + x2 + 4x + 4 – (______) = 0
2x2 + 4x – 240 = 0
x2 + 2x – 120 = 0
x2 + (______) – (______) – 120 = 0
x(x + 12) – (______) (x + 12) = 0
(x + 12)(x – 10) = 0
x = (______)/x = 10
But natural number cannot be negative, x = – 12 is not possible.
Therefore first even natural number is x = 10.
Second even consecutive natural number = x + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12.
