Find the value of k such that x^2+2x+9k-...

Find the value of `k` such that `x^2+2x+9k-5=0` has both roots negative.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For both roots to be negative,
`D ge 0`.
`=>b^2 - 4ac ge 0`
`=>2^2 - 4(9k-5) ge 0`
`=>4-36k+20 ge 0`
`=>k le 24/36=>k le 2/3->(1)`
Also, for roots to be negative, their product should be greater than `0`. `:. 9k-5 gt 0=> k gt 5/9`
