If the equation x2 + 4x + k = 0 has real and distinct roots, then.(A) k < 4(B) k > 4(C) k ≥ 4(D) k ≤ 4 |
Answer» The correct answer is (A) k < 4. The given equation is x2 + 4x + k = 0 Here, a = 1, b = 4 and c = k D = b2 – 4ac = (4)2 – 4 x 1 x k = 16 – 4k The given equation will have real and distinct roots, if D > 0 16 – 4k > 0 16 > 4k 4k < 16 k < 16/4 k < 4 |
