Show that the roots of the equations

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The roots are real and distinct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following equation:

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

In this problem, a = 1, b = k and c = -k - 2

The discriminant is b² - 4ac, and for the roots to be real and distinct, it must be at least or greater than 0.

We get,

(k)²- 4(1)(-k - 2) = 1 - 4(-k - 2)

= k² + 4k + 8

Let's check:

At k = -2,

$(-2)^{2} + 4(-2) + 8 = 4 - 8 + 8 = 4


$

At k = 0,

$(0)^2 + 4(0) + 8 = 8$

At k = -100,

$(-100)^2 + 4(-100) + 8 = 10,000 - 400 + 8 = 9608$

Therefore, we can conclude that for all values of k, the roots are real and distinct.

Solve for the roots in the equation below. In your final answer, include each of the necessary steps and calculations. Hint: Use

QveST [7]

$\bf 27\implies 3^3\\\\
i^3\implies i\cdot i\cdot i\implies i^2\cdot i\implies -1\cdot i\implies -i\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
x^3-27i=0\implies x^3+3^3(-i)=0\implies x^3+(3^3i^3)=0
\\\\\\
x^3+(3i)^3=0\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{difference of cubes}
\\ \quad \\
a^3+b^3 = (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)\qquad
(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)= a^3+b^3\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\$

$\bf (x+3i)[x^2-3ix+(3i)^2]=0\implies 
\begin{cases}
x+3i=0\implies \boxed{x=-3i}\\\\
x^2-3ix+(3i)^2=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\textit{now, for the second one, we'd need the quadratic formula}
\\\\\\
x^2-3ix+(3i)^2=0\implies x^2-3ix+(3^2i^2)=0
$

$\bf x^2-3ix+(-9)=0\implies x^2-3ix-9=0
\\\\\\
\textit{quadratic formula}\\\\
x= \cfrac{ - {{ b}} \pm \sqrt { {{ b}}^2 -4{{ a}}{{ c}}}}{2{{ a}}}\implies x=\cfrac{3i\pm\sqrt{(-3i)^2-4(1)(-9)}}{2(1)}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{3i\pm\sqrt{(-3)^2i^2+36}}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{3i\pm\sqrt{-9+36}}{2}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{3i\pm\sqrt{27}}{2}\implies \boxed{x=\cfrac{3i\pm 3\sqrt{3}}{2}}$
