The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the probability of selecting integers \( a \) from the interval \([-5, 30]\) such that the quadratic inequality \( x^2 + 2(a + 4)x - 5a + 64 > 0 \) holds for all \( x \in \mathbb{R} \). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Quadratic Inequality**: The quadratic inequality \( x^2 + 2(a + 4)x - 5a + 64 > 0 \) will be positive for all \( x \) if its discriminant is less than 0. 2. **Finding the Discriminant**: The standard form of a quadratic equation is \( Ax^2 + Bx + C \), where: - \( A = 1 \) - \( B = 2(a + 4) \) - \( C = -5a + 64 \) The discriminant \( D \) is given by: \[ D = B^2 - 4AC \] Substituting the values: \[ D = [2(a + 4)]^2 - 4(1)(-5a + 64) \] 3. **Expanding the Discriminant**: \[ D = 4(a + 4)^2 + 20a - 256 \] Expanding \( (a + 4)^2 \): \[ D = 4(a^2 + 8a + 16) + 20a - 256 \] \[ D = 4a^2 + 32a + 64 + 20a - 256 \] \[ D = 4a^2 + 52a - 192 \] 4. **Setting the Discriminant Less Than Zero**: We need: \[ 4a^2 + 52a - 192 < 0 \] Dividing the entire inequality by 4: \[ a^2 + 13a - 48 < 0 \] 5. **Finding the Roots of the Quadratic**: To find the roots, we use the quadratic formula: \[ a = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Here, \( b = 13 \), \( a = 1 \), and \( c = -48 \): \[ a = \frac{-13 \pm \sqrt{13^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot (-48)}}{2 \cdot 1} \] \[ a = \frac{-13 \pm \sqrt{169 + 192}}{2} \] \[ a = \frac{-13 \pm \sqrt{361}}{2} \] \[ a = \frac{-13 \pm 19}{2} \] This gives us the roots: \[ a_1 = 3 \quad \text{and} \quad a_2 = -16 \] 6. **Finding the Interval**: The quadratic \( a^2 + 13a - 48 \) is negative between its roots: \[ -16 < a < 3 \] 7. **Considering the Given Range**: We need to find integers \( a \) in the interval \([-5, 30]\) that also satisfy the interval \((-16, 3)\). The integers in this range are: \[ -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 \] This gives us a total of 8 integers. 8. **Calculating the Total Sample Space**: The total integers in the range \([-5, 30]\) are: \[ 30 - (-5) + 1 = 36 \] 9. **Calculating the Probability**: The probability \( P \) is given by the ratio of favorable outcomes to total outcomes: \[ P = \frac{8}{36} = \frac{2}{9} \] ### Final Answer: The probability of selecting integers \( a \) such that the quadratic inequality holds for all \( x \in \mathbb{R} \) is \( \frac{2}{9} \).
