Question

Choose the correct alternative answer for the following sub-questions and write the correct alphabet.

Which of the following quadratic equation has roots – 3 and – 5?

Options

  • X2 – 8X + 15 = 0

  • X2 – 8X – 15 = 0

  • X2 + 8X + 15 = 0

  • X2 + 8X – 15 = 0

MCQ

Solution

X2 + 8X + 15 = 0

Explanation:

The roots of the quadratic equation x2 + 8x + 15 = 0 are

x2 + 5x + 3x + 15 = 0   ....`((5 xx 3 = + 15),(5 + 3 = + 8))`

x(x + 5) + 3(x + 5) = 0

(x + 5)(x + 3) = 0

∴ x + 5 = 0

x = - 5

∴ x + 3 = 0

x = - 3

One of the roots of equation kx2 – 10x + 3 = 0 is 3. Complete the following activity to find the value of k.

Activity:

One of the roots of equation kx2 – 10x + 3 = 0 is 3.

Putting x = `square` in the above equation

∴ `"k"(square)^2 - 10 xx square + 3` = 0

∴ `square` – 30 + 3 = 0

∴ 9k = `square`

∴ k = `square`


Solve the following quadratic equation using formula:

x2 + 10x + 2 = 0


Determine whether (x – 3) is a factor of polynomial x3 – 19x + 30.

Let P(x) = x3 – 19x + 30

By remainder theorem, `square` will be a factor of P(x), if P(3) = 0

Now, P(3) = `square` – 19 `square` + 30

= `square  –  square` + 30

= `square  –  square`

= 0

∵ P(3) = 0

Hence, `square` is a factor of polynomial x3 – 19x + 30.

One of the roots of equation x2 + 5x + a = 0 is – 3. To find the value of a, fill in the boxes.

Since, `square` is a root of equation x2 + 5x + a = 0

∴ Put x = `square` in the equation

⇒ `square^2 + 5 xx square + a` = 0

⇒ `square + square + a` = 0

⇒ `square + a` = 0

⇒ a = `square`


Find the roots of the quadratic equation `x^2 - (sqrt(3) + 1)x + sqrt(3)` = 0.
