Question 11 Mark
Find the values of $k$ so that the quadratic equation $9 x^2-3 k x+k=0$ has equal roots.
Answer
Given equation is $9 x^2-3 k x+k=0$
Comparing with $ax ^2+ bx + c =0$
$a = 9, b = -3k, c = k$
For real and equal roots, we must have
Discriminant, $D = 0$
$\Rightarrow b^2 - 4ac = 0$
$\Rightarrow (-3k)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times k = 0$
$\Rightarrow 9k^2 - 36k = 0$
$\Rightarrow 9k(k - 4) = 0$
$\Rightarrow 9k = 0$ or $k - 4 = 0$
$\Rightarrow k = 0$ or $k = 4$

Question 21 Mark
If 1 is a root of the equation $a y^2+a y+3=0$ and $y^2+y+b=0$ then find the value of $a b$.
Answer
Since 1 is a root of the equation $a y^2+a y+3=0$, we have
$a(1)^2 + a(1) + 3 = 0$
$\Rightarrow a + a + 3 = 0$
$\Rightarrow 2a = -3$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}=\frac{-3}{2}$
Also, 1 is a root of the equation $y^2 + y + b = 0$
$\Rightarrow (1)^2 + 1 + b = 0$
$\Rightarrow 2 + b = 0$
$\Rightarrow b = -2$
Hence, $\text{ab}=\frac{-3}{2}\times(-2)=3$

Question 31 Mark
If one root of the quadratic equation $3 x^2-10 x+k=0$ is reciprocal of the other, find the value of $k$.
Answer
Let one root of the given equation be $\alpha$. Then, its root will be $\frac{1}{\alpha}$.
Given equation is $3 x^2-10 x+k=0$
On comparing with $a x^2+b x+c=0$, we have
$a=3, b=-10, c=k$
Now,
Product of the roots $=\frac{ c }{ a }$
$\Rightarrow\alpha\times\frac{1}{\alpha}=\frac{\text{k}}3{}$
$\Rightarrow\text{k}=3$

Question 41 Mark
Show that $x=-3$ is a solution of $x^2+6 x+9=0$.
Answer
Given equation is $x^2+6 x+9=$ OSubstituting $x=-3$ in L.H.S. of above equation, we get
$L.H.S. = (-3)^2 + 6 \times (-3) + 9$
$= 9 - 18 + 9$
$= 18 - 18$
$= 0$
$= R.H.S.$
Hence, $x=-3$ is a solution of the given equation.

Question 51 Mark
The sum of two natural numbers is $8$ and their product is $15$. Find the numbers.
Answer
Let the required natural numbers be x and $(8 - x).$
Then, we have $x(8 - x) = 15$
$\Rightarrow 8x - x^2 = 15$
$\Rightarrow x^2 - 8x + 15 = 0$
$\Rightarrow x^2 - 3x - 5x + 15 = 0$
$\Rightarrow x(x - 3) - 5(x - 3) = 0$
$\Rightarrow (x - 3)(x - 5) = 0$
$\Rightarrow x - 3 = 0$ or $x - 5 = 0$
$\Rightarrow x = 3$ or $x = 5$
Hence, the required numbers are 3 and 5.

Question 61 Mark
If the quadratic equation $\text{px}^2-2\sqrt5\text{px}+15=0$ has equal roots then find the value of p.
Answer
Since the roots of the equation $\text{px}^2-2\sqrt5\text{px}+15=0$ are equal,
Discriminant, $D = 0$
$\Rightarrow\big(-2\sqrt5\text{p}\big)^2-4\times\text{p}\times15=0$
$\Rightarrow 20p^2 - 60p = 0$
$\Rightarrow 20p(p - 3) = 0$
$\Rightarrow 20p = 0 or p - 3 = 0$
$\Rightarrow p = 3$
$($Since $\text{p}\neq0)$

Question 81 Mark
Solve the following quadratic equation:$48x^2 - 13x - 1 = 0$
Answer
$48x^2 - 13x - 1 = 0$
$\Rightarrow 48x^2 - 16x + 3x - 1 = 0$
$\Rightarrow 16x(3x - 1) + 1(3x - 1) = 0$
$\Rightarrow (3x - 1)(16x + 1) = 0$
$\Rightarrow 3x - 1 = 0 or 16x + 1 = 0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{1}{3}$ or $\text{x}=\frac{-1}{16}$
Hence, $\frac{-1}{16}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ are the roots of the equation $48x^2 - 13x - 1 = 0$

Question 91 Mark
If $\text{x}=\frac{-1}{2}$ is a solution of the quadratic equation $3x^2 + 2kx - 3 = 0$, find the value of $k.$
Answer
Since $\text{x}=\frac{-1}{2}$ is a solution of equation $3x^2 + 2kx - 3 = 0,$
$3\Big(\frac{-1}{2}\Big)+\text{2k}\times\Big(\frac{-1}{2}\Big)-3=0$
$\Rightarrow3\times\frac{1}{4}-\text{k}-3=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{k}=\frac{3}{4}-3$
$\Rightarrow\text{k}=\frac{3-12}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\text{k}=\frac{-9}{4}$

$\Rightarrow (-4k)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times k = 0$
$\Rightarrow 16k^2 - 4k = 0$
$\Rightarrow 4k(4k - 1) = 0$
$\Rightarrow 4k = 0$ or $4k - 1 = 0$
$\Rightarrow k = 0$ or $\text{k}=\frac{1}{4}$
