(c) (x+2)(x–1)=x2–2x–3

(d) x3–x2+2x+1=(x+1)3

Sol :

(a) (x + 2)2 = 2(x + 3)

⇒ x2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 6

⇒ x2 + 4x – 2x + 4 – 6 = 0

⇒ x2 + 2x – 2

It is a quadratic equation.


(b) $x^{2}+3 x=(-1)(1-3 x) $
$\Rightarrow x^{2}+3 x=-1+3 x$

$\Rightarrow x^{2}+1=0$

It is also quadratic equation.


(c) $(x+2)(x-1)=x^{2}-2 x-3$

$x^{2}-x+2 x-2=x^{2}-2 x-3$

$x^{2}-x^{2}+x+2 x-2+3=0 \Rightarrow 3 x+1=0$

It is not a quadratic equation.

⇒ x2 + x – 2x – 2 = x2 – 3x – x + 3
⇒ 3x + x – 2x + x = 3 + 2
⇒ 3x = 5
It is not a quadratic equation.

(b) $(x+2)^{3}=2 x\left(x^{2}-1\right)$

$x^{3}+6 x^{2}+12 x+8=2 x^{3}-2 x$

⇒ 4 – 8 + 5 = 0

⇒ 9 – 8 ≠ 0

2 is not its root.


(b) $x^{2}+3 x-12=0$
$ \Rightarrow(2)^{2}-3 \times 2-12=0$

Substituting the value of $x=\frac{1}{2}$ in the equation 

$\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}+k \times \frac{1}{2}-\frac{5}{4}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{4}+\frac{k}{2}-\frac{5}{4}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{k}{2}-1=0$

Sol :

$2 x^{2}-5 x+(k+3)=0$

a=2, b=-5, c=k+3

=25-8(k+3)

$\therefore b^{2}-4 a c=0$

∴ 25-8(k+3)=0

⇒25-8k-24=0

⇒1-8k=0 

⇒8 k=1

$\therefore k=\frac{1}{8}$

Ans (c)


Question 9

(a) 0 only

(b) 4

(c) 8 only

(d) 0, 8

Sol :

$2 x^{2}-k x+k=0$

a=2, b=-k, c=k

$\therefore b^{2}-4 a c=(-k)^{2}-4 \times 2 \times k$

$\quad=k^{2}-8 k$

∴ Roots are equal. $\therefore b^{2}-4 a c=0$

$k^{2}-8 k=0$

⇒k(k-8)=0$

Either k=0

or k-8=0, then k=8

k=0,8

Ans (d)

If the equation $3 x^{2}-k x+2 k=0$ roots, then the the value(s) of k is (are)

(a) 6

(b) 0 Only

(c) 24 only

(d) 0

Sol :

$3 x^{2}-k x+2 k=0$

Here, a=3, b=-k, c=2 k

$b^{2}-4 a c=(-k)^{2}-4 \times 3 \times 2 k$

$=k^{2}-24 k$

∴ Roots are equal. $\therefore b^{2}-4 a c=0$

$\therefore k^{2}-24 k=0$

⇒k(k-24)=0

Either k=0 

or k-24=0, then k=24

∴ k=0, 24 

Ans (d)


Question 11

If the equation $\{k+1\} x^{2}-2(k-1) x+1=0$ has equal roots, then the values of k are

(a) 1, 3

(b) 0, 3

(c) 0, 1

(d) 0, 1

Sol :

(k + 1)x² – 2(k – 1)x + 1 = 0

Here, a = k + 1, b = -2(k – 1), c = 1

$\therefore b^{2}-4 a c=[-2(k-1)]^{2}-4(k+1)(1)$
$\quad=4\left(k^{2}-2 k+1\right)-4 k-4$
$\quad=4 k^{2}-8 k+4-4 k-4$
$\quad=4 k^{2}-12 k$
∵ Roots are equal. $\therefore b^{2}-4 a c=0$
$\therefore 4 k^{2}-12 k=0$
⇒4 k(k-3)=0 
⇒ k(k-3)=0
Either k=0 or k-3=0, then k=3
k=0,3(b)


Question 12

(a) $p<\frac{9}{2}$
(b)p $\leq \frac{9}{2}$
(c) $p>\frac{9}{2}$
(d) $p \geq \frac{9}{2}$
Sol :
2x² – 6x + p = 0
Here, a = 2, b = -6, c = p
$b^{2}-4 a c=(-6)^{2}-4 \times 2 \times p$
=36-8 p
∵ Roots are real and unequal. 
$\therefore b^{2}-4 a c>0$

⇒ 36-8p>0

⇒ 36-8p>0

⇒ 36>8p

⇒ $\frac{36}{8}>p$

⇒ $p<\frac{36}{8}$

⇒ $p<\frac{9}{2}$

Ans (a)


Question 13

The quadratic equation 2x² – √5x + 1 = 0 has

(a) two distinct real roots

(b) two equal real roots

(c) no real roots

Sol :

2x² – √5x + 1 = 0

Here, a = 2, b = -√5, c = 1

$b^{2}-4 a c=(-\sqrt{5})^{2}-4 \times 2 \times 1$
=5-8=-3

$\because b^{2}-4 a c<0$

∵ It has no real roots.

= 16 – 12√2

= 16 – 12(1.4)

= 16 – 16.8

= -0.8
