The values of k for the different quadratic equation solutions are as follows
a the equation 2x² - x + 3k = 0 has two distinct real roots
b. the equation 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0 has equal roots
ci the equation -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0 has real roots
d the equation 3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0 has no real solutions
Quadratic equations of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is solved using the formula
OR
The equation b² - 4ac is called the discriminant and it is used as follows
To solve the equation and get two real roots: 2x² - x + 3k = 0
substituting the values gives
(-1)² - 4 * 2 * 3k > 0
1 - 24k > 0
1 > 24k
divide through by coefficient of k
k < 1/24
To solve the equation and get equal roots: 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0
substituting the values gives
(-2)² - 4 * 5 * (2k - 1) = 0
4 - 40k + 20 = 0
-40k = -24
divide through by coefficient of k
k = 3/5
To solve the equation and get real roots -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0
substituting the values gives
(3)² - 4 * -1 * (k+1) > 0
9 + 4k + 4> 0
4k > -13
divide through by coefficient of k
k > -3.25
To solve the equation and get no real solutions 3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0
substituting the values gives
(-3)² - 4 * 3k * 2 < 0
9 - 24k² > 0
9 > 24k²
divide through by coefficient of k²
k² < 24/9
k < ± 1.633
