The correct Answer is:
To determine for which values of \( \lambda \) the point \( ( \lambda^2 + 2\lambda + 5, \lambda^2 + 1 ) \) lies on the line \( x + y = 10 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Substitute the point into the line equation We start by substituting the coordinates of the point into the equation of the line. \[ x + y = 10 \] Substituting \( x = \lambda^2 + 2\lambda + 5 \) and \( y = \lambda^2 + 1 \): \[ (\lambda^2 + 2\lambda + 5) + (\lambda^2 + 1) = 10 \] ### Step 2: Simplify the equation Combine like terms: \[ 2\lambda^2 + 2\lambda + 6 = 10 \] ### Step 3: Rearrange the equation Now, we will rearrange the equation to set it to zero: \[ 2\lambda^2 + 2\lambda + 6 - 10 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2\lambda^2 + 2\lambda - 4 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Divide the equation by 2 To simplify further, divide the entire equation by 2: \[ \lambda^2 + \lambda - 2 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solve the quadratic equation Now, we will use the quadratic formula to find the values of \( \lambda \). The quadratic formula is given by: \[ \lambda = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{D}}{2a} \] Where \( a = 1, b = 1, c = -2 \). First, we need to calculate the discriminant \( D \): \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = 1^2 - 4(1)(-2) = 1 + 8 = 9 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the roots Now substituting \( D \) back into the quadratic formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{9}}{2 \cdot 1} = \frac{-1 \pm 3}{2} \] This gives us two potential solutions: 1. \( \lambda = \frac{-1 + 3}{2} = \frac{2}{2} = 1 \) 2. \( \lambda = \frac{-1 - 3}{2} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2 \) ### Conclusion The values of \( \lambda \) for which the point lies on the line \( x + y = 10 \) are \( \lambda = 1 \) and \( \lambda = -2 \).
