In each of the following, determine whether the given numbers are roots of the given equations or not; 6x2 – x – 2 = 0; `(-1)/(2), (2)/(3)`
उत्तर
6x2 – x – 2 = 0; `(-1)/(2), (2)/(3)`
If x = `(-1)/(2)`, then
= `6(-1/2)^2 - (-1/2) - 2`
= `6 xx (1)/(4) + (1)/(2) - 2`
= `(3)/(2) + (1)/(2) - 2`
= `(4)/(2) - 2` = 0
∴ x = `(-1)/(2)` is its root
If x = `(2)/(3)`, then
= `6 xx (4)/(9) - (2)/(3) - 2`
= `(8)/(3) - (2)/(3) - 2`
= `(6)/(3) - 2` = 0
∴ x = `(2)/(3)` is also its root.
Hence `(-1)/(2), (2)/(3)` are both its root.

Complete the following activity to determine the nature of the roots of the quadratic equation x2 + 2x – 9 = 0 :
Solution :
Compare x2 + 2x – 9 = 0 with ax2 + bx + c = 0
a = 1, b = 2, c = `square`
∴ b2 – 4ac = (2)2 – 4 × `square` × `square`
Δ = 4 + `square` = 40
∴ b2 – 4ac > 0
∴ The roots of the equation are real and unequal.
