The correct Answer is:
To determine the values of \( k \) for which the quadratic equation \( x^2 + kx + 7.5k = 0 \) has no solutions, we need to analyze the discriminant of the quadratic equation. The discriminant \( D \) is given by the formula: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac \] where \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) are the coefficients of the quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \). ### Step 1: Identify coefficients For the given equation \( x^2 + kx + 7.5k = 0 \): - \( a = 1 \) - \( b = k \) - \( c = 7.5k \) ### Step 2: Write the discriminant Substituting the values of \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) into the discriminant formula, we have: \[ D = k^2 - 4(1)(7.5k) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the discriminant Now, simplify the expression: \[ D = k^2 - 30k \] ### Step 4: Set the condition for no solutions For the quadratic equation to have no solutions, the discriminant must be less than zero: \[ k^2 - 30k < 0 \] ### Step 5: Factor the inequality We can factor the left-hand side: \[ k(k - 30) < 0 \] ### Step 6: Analyze the inequality To solve the inequality \( k(k - 30) < 0 \), we need to find the intervals where the product is negative. The roots of the equation \( k(k - 30) = 0 \) are \( k = 0 \) and \( k = 30 \). ### Step 7: Test intervals We will test the intervals determined by the roots: 1. \( k < 0 \) 2. \( 0 < k < 30 \) 3. \( k > 30 \) - For \( k < 0 \): Both factors \( k \) and \( (k - 30) \) are negative, so the product is positive. - For \( 0 < k < 30 \): The factor \( k \) is positive and \( (k - 30) \) is negative, so the product is negative. - For \( k > 30 \): Both factors are positive, so the product is positive. ### Step 8: Conclusion The inequality \( k(k - 30) < 0 \) holds true in the interval: \[ 0 < k < 30 \] Thus, the value of \( k \) that satisfies the condition for the quadratic equation to have no solutions is: \[ \boxed{(0, 30)} \]
