Question

find the value of P which the equation is px square - 5 x + p is equal to zero has equal roots

Answer 1

px^2 - 5x +p = 0

We know that,

If Discriminent = 0, the equation has equal roots

=> b^2 - 4ac = 0

=> (-5)^2 - 4(p)(p) = 0

=> 25 = 4p^2

=> p^2 = 25/4


Values of p are 5/2 and - 5/2

Answer 2

it's the answer
