Using the quadratic formula works but if you know there are 2 answers (highest power of problem tells you how many solutions) then
10x^2 = 5x
So either x = 0, giving 0=0. Or divide by 5x
2x = 1
x = 0.5

Answer:

The pairs of integer having two real solution for $ax^{2} -6x+c = 0$ are

$a = -4, c = 5$
$a = 1, c = 6$
$a = 2, c = 3$
$a = 3, c = 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$ax^{2} -6x+c = 0$

Now we will solve the equation by putting all the 6 pairs so we get the following

$-3x^{2} -6x-5 = 0$ for $a = -3 , c=-5$

$-4x^{2} -6x+5 = 0$ for $a = -4 , c=5$

$1x^{2} -6x+6 = 0$ for $a = 1 , c=6$

$2x^{2} -6x+3 = 0$ for $a = 2 , c=3$

$3x^{2} -6x+3 = 0$ for $a = 3 , c=3$

$5x^{2} -6x+4 = 0$ for $a = 5 , c=4$

The above all are Quadratic equations inn general form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

where we have a,b and c constant values

So for a real Solution we must have

$Disciminant , b^{2} -4\timesa\timesc \geq 0$

for $a = -3 , c=-5$ we have

$Discriminant =-24$ which is less than 0 ∴ not a real solution.

for $a = -4 , c=5$ we have

$Discriminant = 116$ which is greater than 0 ∴ a real solution.

for $a = 1 , c=6$ we have

$Discriminant =12$ which is greater than 0 ∴ a real solution.

for $a = 2 , c=3$ we have

$Discriminant =12$ which is greater than 0 ∴ a real solution.

for $a = 3 , c=3$ we have

$Discriminant =0$ which is equal to 0 ∴ a real solution.

for $a = 5 , c=4$ we have

$Discriminant =-44$ which is less than 0 ∴ not a real solution.
