The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the given conditions and derive the necessary inequalities. ### Step 1: Analyze the first inequality We are given the inequality: \[ a + b + c > \frac{9c}{4} \] To simplify this, we can rearrange the terms: \[ a + b + c - \frac{9c}{4} > 0 \] ### Step 2: Combine like terms To combine the terms involving \(c\), we can express \(c\) in terms of a common denominator: \[ a + b + c - \frac{9c}{4} = a + b + \frac{4c}{4} - \frac{9c}{4} = a + b - \frac{5c}{4} > 0 \] Multiplying through by 4 to eliminate the fraction gives: \[ 4a + 4b - 5c > 0 \] ### Step 3: Analyze the quadratic equation The quadratic equation given is: \[ ax^2 + 2bx - 5c = 0 \] For this quadratic to have non-real roots, the discriminant must be less than zero. The discriminant \(D\) for a quadratic equation \(Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0\) is given by: \[ D = B^2 - 4AC \] In our case: - \(A = a\) - \(B = 2b\) - \(C = -5c\) Thus, the discriminant becomes: \[ D = (2b)^2 - 4(a)(-5c) = 4b^2 + 20ac \] ### Step 4: Set up the inequality for non-real roots For the roots to be non-real, we require: \[ 4b^2 + 20ac < 0 \] ### Step 5: Rearranging the inequality We can factor out 4 from the left-hand side: \[ 4(b^2 + 5ac) < 0 \] Dividing both sides by 4 (which does not change the inequality since 4 is positive): \[ b^2 + 5ac < 0 \] ### Step 6: Summary of conditions We now have two inequalities to consider: 1. \( 4a + 4b - 5c > 0 \) 2. \( b^2 + 5ac < 0 \) ### Conclusion From the inequalities derived, we conclude that: - \( a + b + c > \frac{9c}{4} \) implies \( 4a + 4b > 5c \) - The quadratic equation \( ax^2 + 2bx - 5c = 0 \) has non-real roots if \( b^2 + 5ac < 0 \)
