MCQ
Which of the following equations has no real roots?
A
$x^2=10 x-2$
B
$x^2-12 x=16$
C
$7 x^2-1=-8 x$
✓
$2 x^2+5 x+5=0$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$2 x^2+5 x+5=0$
(d) : To have no real roots, discriminant $\left(D=b^2-4 a c\right)$ must be $<0$. (a) $D=(-10)^2-4(1)(2)=100-8=92>0$ (b) $D=(-12)^2-4(1)(-16)=144+64=208>0$ (c) $D=(8)^2-4(7)(-1)=64+28=92>0$ (d) $D=(5)^2-4(2)(5)=25-40=-15<0$
