Learning Task 1 A Characterize The Roots Of The Following Quadratic Equations Using The Discriminant With Solution Poplease class=

Sagot :

Answer:

Solution:

1. [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 4x + 3 = 0, then: a = 1, b= 4, c= 3 using the discriminant formula, we have

[tex]b^{2}[/tex]- 4ac = [tex]4^{2}[/tex] - 4(1)(3)

            = 16 - 12

            = 4, since the the discriminant is greater than 0 which is 4 and a perfect square, the nature of the roots are: rational number, not equal.

Checked:

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 4x + 3 = 0

(x + 1)(x+3) = 0

x +1 =0, x + 3 = 0

x = -1, x = -3, rational number, not equal.

2. [tex]x^{2}[/tex] -5x + 4 =0

Solution:

a= 1, b = -5, c = 4

[tex]b^{2}[/tex] - 4ac = [tex](-5)^{2}[/tex] - 4(1)(4)

             = 25 - 16

              = 9, since the the discriminant is greater than 0 which is 9 and a perfect square, the nature of the roots are: rational number, not equal.

Checked:

[tex]x^{2} - 5x[/tex] + 4 = 0

(x -1)(x-4) = 0

x - 1 = 0, x - 4 = 0

x = 1, x = 4,rational number, not equal.

3. [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 7 = 0

Solution:

a = 1, b = 0, c = 7

then,

[tex]b^{2}[/tex] - 4ac = [tex]0^{2}[/tex] - 4(1)(7)

            = 0 -28

             = -28

Since the discriminant is less than 0 which is -28, the quadratic equation

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 7 = 0 has no real roots.

Checked:

[tex]x^{2} + 7 = 0[/tex]

      [tex]x^{2}[/tex] = -7

     x = [tex]\sqrt{-7}[/tex]

     x = [tex]\sqrt{-7}[/tex], no real roots

4. [tex]4x^{2} -4x + 1 = 0[/tex]

Solution:

a = 4, b = -4 c = 1

[tex]b^{2} -4ac[/tex] = [tex](-4)^{2}[/tex] - 4(4)(1)

              = 16 - 16

               = 0

Since the discriminant is 0, therefore the nature are;

real numbers, equal.

Checked:

[tex]4x^{2} -4x + 1 = 0[/tex]

(2x - 1)(2x - 1) = 0

2x - 1 = 0,   2x - 1 = 0

    2x = 1,        2x = 1

    [tex]\frac{2x}{2}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ,        [tex]\frac{2x}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

real numbers, equal.

 Sorry, I cannot answer number 5 because some numbers are missing, at least sa ngayon you have already answers that may help you or others to address their problem.

Salamat!
