The correct Answer is:
To examine the nature of the roots of the given quadratic equations without solving them, we will use the discriminant (D) formula, which is given by: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac \] The nature of the roots can be determined as follows: - If \( D > 0 \): The equation has two distinct real roots. - If \( D = 0 \): The equation has two equal real roots. - If \( D < 0 \): The equation has no real roots. Now, let's analyze each equation step by step. ### (i) For the equation \( 5x^2 - 6x + 7 = 0 \) 1. Identify coefficients: - \( a = 5 \) - \( b = -6 \) - \( c = 7 \) 2. Calculate the discriminant: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = (-6)^2 - 4 \cdot 5 \cdot 7 \] \[ D = 36 - 140 = -104 \] 3. Determine the nature of the roots: Since \( D < 0 \), the equation has **no real roots**. ### (ii) For the equation \( x^2 + 6x + 9 = 0 \) 1. Identify coefficients: - \( a = 1 \) - \( b = 6 \) - \( c = 9 \) 2. Calculate the discriminant: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = (6)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 9 \] \[ D = 36 - 36 = 0 \] 3. Determine the nature of the roots: Since \( D = 0 \), the equation has **two equal real roots**. ### (iii) For the equation \( 2x^2 + 6x + 3 = 0 \) 1. Identify coefficients: - \( a = 2 \) - \( b = 6 \) - \( c = 3 \) 2. Calculate the discriminant: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = (6)^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \] \[ D = 36 - 24 = 12 \] 3. Determine the nature of the roots: Since \( D > 0 \), the equation has **two distinct real roots**. ### Summary of Results: - (i) \( 5x^2 - 6x + 7 = 0 \): No real roots. - (ii) \( x^2 + 6x + 9 = 0 \): Two equal real roots. - (iii) \( 2x^2 + 6x + 3 = 0 \): Two distinct real roots.
