(a) 5
(b) 3
(c) 8
(d) 5
Answers
Answer:
(c) 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Concept= Quadratic Equation
Given= The quadratic equation with both root equal
To find= The value of c
Explanation=
We have been the question as if the roots of the equations 3/4x² +9x+c³= 0 are equal then c is equal to
(a) 5
(b) 3
(c) 8
(d) 5
So the quadratic equation is 3/4x² +9x+c³= 0
So we reduce the equation by multiplying it by 4 on both sides.
4* 3/4x² + 4*9x + 4*c³= 0*4
3x² + 36x + 4c³= 0
So we have been the condition that both roots are equal.
When the given quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c =0
The Condition for equal roots is b² - 4ac =0 or b² = 4ac.
In this equation 3x² + 36x + 4c³= 0 the value of a= 3, b= 36 and c= c³
So the equation holds as : 36² = 4*3*c³
=> 39*36 = 4*3*c³
=> 9*9 = 3*c³
=> 27 = c³
=> c= 3
Therefore the value of c is 3.
Hence option (c) is correct.
