उत्तर

The given quadric equation is 2x2 − 5x − k = 0, and roots are real

Then find the value of k.

Here,

a = 2

b = −5

c = k

As we know that D = b2 − 4ac

Putting the value of a = 2, b = −5 and c = k

= (−5)2 − 4 × (2) × (−k)

= 25 + 8k

The given equation will have real roots, if D ≥ 0

25 + 8k ≥ 0

8k ≥ −25

k ≥ `−25/8`

Therefore, the value of k ≥ `−25/8`
