Compare px² -2√5 px + 15 = 0 with
ax² + bx + c = 0
a = p , b = -2√5 , c = 15
We know that ,
If the roots of the quadratic equation are equal , then it's discriminant (D) equals to zero.
D = 0
b² - 4ac = 0
( -2√5 p )² - 4×p ×15 = 0
20p² - 60p = 0
20p( p - 3)= 0
Therefore ,
20p = 0 or ( p- 3 ) = 0
p = 0 or p = 3
