प्रश्न

Determine the nature of the roots of the following quadratic equation:

(b + c)x2 - (a + b + c)x + a = 0

Advertisements

उत्तर

The given equation is (b + c)x2 - (a + b + c)x + a = 0

The given equation is in the form of ax2 + bx + c = 0

where a = (b + c), b = -(a + b + c), c = a

Therefore, the discriminant

D = b2 - 4ac

= (-(a + b + c))2 - 4 x (b + c) x (a)

= (a + b + c)2 - 4ab - 4ac

= a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca - 4ab - 4ac

= a2 + b2 + c2 - 2ab + 2bc - 2ac

∵ D > 0

∴ The roots of the given equation are real and distonct.
