To show that at least one of the equations \(x^2 + px + q = 0\) and \(x^2 + rx + s = 0\) has real roots given the condition \(pr = 2(q + s)\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the conditions for real roots For a quadratic equation \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\) to have real roots, its discriminant must be non-negative. The discriminant \(D\) is given by: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac \] ...
