Can the quadratic polynomial x2 + kx + k have equal zeroes for some odd integer k > 1?

उत्तर
A Quadratic Equation will have equal roots if it satisfies the condition:
b2 – 4ac = 0
Given equation is x2 + kx + k = 0
a = 1, b = k, x = k
Substituting in the equation we get,
k2 – 4(1)(k) = 0
k2 – 4k = 0
k(k – 4) = 0
k = 0, k = 4
But in the question, it is given that k is greater than 1.
Hence the value of k is 4 if the equation has common roots.
Hence if the value of k = 4, then the equation (x2 + kx + k) will have equal roots.

The figure given alongside shows the path of a diver, when she takes a jump from the diving board. Clearly it is a parabola.
Annie was standing on a diving board, 48 feet above the water level. She took a dive into the pool. Her height (in feet) above the water level at any time ‘t’ in seconds is given by the polynomial h(t) such that h(t) = -16t2 + 8t + k.
The zeroes of the polynomial r(t) = -12t2 + (k - 3)t + 48 are negative of each other. Then k is ______.
