Choose the correct answer
1) ax2+bx+c=0, a>0, b=0,c>0 has
a) 2 equal roots
b )one real root
c) two distinct real roots
d) no real roots
d) no real roots.
If an equation is ax2+bx+c=0, then D = b2 - 4ac
and if D>0, then the eq. has real and distinct roots.
if D = 0 , then the eq. has 2 equal real roots.
and if D<0 , then the eq. has no real roots.
D = b2 - 4ac
= (0 x 0) - 4ac
= -4ac
Given is that a>0 and c>0 , which means that D = negative.
So, the given equation has no real roots.
