If the roots of the equation `ax^2 + bx + c = 0, a != 0 (a, b, c` are real numbers), are imaginary and `a + c < b,` thenA. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.B. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.C.

Answer» Correct Answer - B Clearly, statement-2 is true. To check the truth of statement-1, let us assume that each one of the given equation has real roots. Then, `b^(2) - 4ac gt 0, c^(2) - 4ab ge 0 and a^(2) - 4bc ge 0` `rArr" "b^(2) ge 4ac, c^(2) ge 4ab and a^(2) ge 4bc` `rArr" "a^(2) b^(2) c^(2) ge 64 a^(2) b^(2) c^(2)`, which is not possible. So, our supposition is wrong. Therefore, at least one of the given equations has imaginary roots. Hence, statement-1 is true. Clearly, statement-2 is not a correct explanation for statement-1. |
