Q14 of 180 Page 2

The quadratic equation has _______ roots.

OR


The pair of linear equations 2x + 4y = 3 and 12y + 6x = 6 has/have _______ solutions/s.


The discriminant value of a quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ≠ 0 is given by,


D = b2 – 4ac = 0


Given,


D = b2 – 4ac


D = (– √5)2 – 4(2)(1)


D = – 3


Here, D < 0


Hence, the roots of the quadratic equation are imaginary.


OR


Given pair of equations are,


2x + 4y – 3 = 0 and 6x + 12y – 6 = 0


Here, a1 = 2, b1 = 4, c1 = – 3


And a2 = 6, b2 = 12, c2 = – 6





Here,


Hence, the given pair of linear equations has no solution.
