Question

What is the positive value of k for which the equations x2 + kx + 144 = 0 and
x2-12 x +k =0 will have real roots?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

explanation: For a quadratic equation to have real roots, discriminant must be greater than or equal to zero. ∴ the value of k that satisfies both the conditions is k=16.
