Equation: kx^2 +x^2 +kx +k +1 = 0
Using the discriminant: K^2 -4*(k +1)*(k +1) = 0
Expanding brackets: k^2 -4k^2 -8k -4 = 0
Collecting like terms: -3^2 -8k -4 = 0
Dividing all terms by -1: 3k^2 +8k +4 = 0
Factorizing the above: (3k +2)(k +2) = 0 meaning k = -2/3 or -2
Therefore possible values of k are either: -2/3 or -2
-4,3 are the roots of this equation, so for the values for which the sum of roots is 1 & product is -12
Using the discriminant formula for a quadratic equation k has a value of 8/25 or maybe 0.
In math speak: Solving the equation means finding 'x' values that make the equation true. These 'x' values are called the roots of the quadratic.
The roots are -1/2 of [ 1 plus or minus sqrt(5) ] . When rounded: 0.61803 and -1.61803. Their absolute values are the limits of the Fibonacci series, or the so-called 'Golden Ratio'.
In surd form, square roots need to be have the same radical term before you can add or subtract them. However, unlike in algebraic expressions, it is possible to add or subtract square roots using approximate (decimal) values.
Using the discriminant the possible values of k are -9 or 9
They are called the solutions or roots of the equations.
-4,3 are the roots of this equation, so for the values for which the sum of roots is 1 & product is -12
y = x2 - 4x + 4 = (x - 2)2 has one repeated root
Whether the equation has 2 distinct roots, repeated roots, or complex roots. If the determinant is smaller than 0 then it has complex roots. If the determinant is 0 then it has repeated roots. If the determinant is greater than 0 then it has two distinct roots.
Using the discriminant formula for a quadratic equation k has a value of 8/25 or maybe 0.
A rational expression is not defined whenever the denominator of the expression equals zero. These will be the roots or zeros of the denominator.
zeros values at which an equation equals zero are called roots,solutions, or simply zeros. an x-intercept occurs when y=o ex.) y=x squared - 4 0=(x-2)(x+2) (-infinity,-2)(-2,2) (2,infinity)
