MCQ 11 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
One of the roots of equation $x^2+m x-5=0$ is $2$; find m.
  • A
    $-2$
  • B
    $-\frac{1}{2}$
  • $\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    $2$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{1}{2}$
$x^2+m x-5=0$, Put value of $x=2$
$2^2+2 m=5 \Rightarrow 2 m=5-4 \Rightarrow m=\frac{1}{2}$

MCQ 21 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
$\sqrt{5} m^2-\sqrt{5} m+\sqrt{5}=0$ which of the following statement is true for this given equation?
 
  • A
    Real and uneual roots
  • B
    Real and equal roots
  • Roots are not real
  • D
    Three roots.
Answer
Correct option: C.
Roots are not real
$\sqrt{5} m^2+\sqrt{5} m+\sqrt{5}=0 \text { compare with } ax ^2+ bx + c =0 $
$\Rightarrow a =\sqrt{5}, b=\sqrt{5} \text { and } c =\sqrt{5}$
$ \therefore b ^2-4 ac =\sqrt{5}^2-4(\sqrt{5})(\sqrt{5}) $
$ =5-20$
$ =-15$
$ \therefore b ^2-4 ac <0 \text {.hence, roots are not real. }$

Question 31 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
Out of the following equations, find the equation having the sum of its roots -5.
A. $3 x^2-15 x+3=0$
B. $x^2-5 x+3=0$
C. $x^2+3 x-5=0$
D. $3 x^2+15 x+3=0$
Answer
Sum of the roots i.e. $\alpha+\beta=-\frac{b}{a}$
$\therefore$ in option $A, \alpha+\beta=-\frac{-15}{3}=5$
$\therefore$ in option $B, \alpha+\beta=-\frac{-5}{1}=5$
$\therefore$ in option $A, \alpha+\beta=-\frac{3}{1}=3$
$\therefore$ in option $A, \alpha+\beta=-\frac{15}{3}=-5$

Question 41 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
Which of the following quadratic equations has roots 3, 5?
A. $x^2-15 x+8=0$
B. $x^2-8 x+15=0$
C. $x^2+3 x+5=0$
D. $x^2+8 x-15=0$
Answer
In option A,
$\Rightarrow x^2-15 x+8=0$
$\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}=\frac{15 \pm \sqrt{-15^2-4(1)(8)}}{2 \times 1}=\frac{15 \pm \sqrt{225-80}}{2}=\frac{15 \pm \sqrt{145}}{2}$
In option B
$x^2-8 x+15=0$
$\Rightarrow x^2-5 x-3 x+15=0$
$\Rightarrow x(x-5)-3(x-5)=0$
$\Rightarrow(x-5)(x-3)=0$
$\Rightarrow x-5=0 \text { or } x-3=0$
$x=5 \text { and } x=3$
In option c,
$\Rightarrow x^2+3 x+5=0$
$\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}=\frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{3^2-4(1)(5)}}{2 \times 1}=\frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{9-20}}{2}=\frac{(-3 \pm \sqrt{-11})}{2}$
In option d
$x^2+8 x -15=0$
$\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}=\frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{8^2-4(1)(15)}}{2 \times 1}=\frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{64-60}}{2}=\frac{(-8 \pm 2)}{2}$
$x=\frac{-8+2}{2}=-\frac{6}{2}=-3 \text { or } x=\frac{-8-2}{2}=-\frac{10}{2}=-5$

MCQ 51 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
For $\sqrt{2} x^2+5 x+\sqrt{2}=0$ find the value of the discriminant.
  • A
    $-5$
  • $17$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $2 \sqrt{2}-5$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$17$
$\sqrt{2} x^2+5 x+\sqrt{2}=0$ compare with $a x^2+b x+c=0$
$\Rightarrow a=\sqrt{2}, b=5 \text { and } c=\sqrt{2} $
$\therefore b ^2-4 ac =5^2-4(\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{2})$
$=25-8$
$=17$

MCQ 61 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
The roots of $x^2+k x+k=0$ are real and equal, find k.
 
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $4$
  • $0$ or $4$
  • D
    $2$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$0$ or $4$
$x ^2+ kx + k =0$, equation has real and equal roots.
$\therefore b ^2-4 ac =0 $
$\Rightarrow k ^2-4(1) k =0 $
$\Rightarrow k ( k -4)=0 $
$k =0 \text { or } k -4=0 \Rightarrow k =4 $
$\therefore k =0 \text { or } 4$

MCQ 71 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
Out of the following equations which one is not a quadratic equation?
 
  • $x^2 + 4x = 11 + x^2$
  • B
    $5x^2 = 90$
  • C
    $x^2 = 4x$
  • D
    $2x – x^2 = x^2 + 5$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$x^2 + 4x = 11 + x^2$
$x^2+4 x-11-x^2=0 \Rightarrow 4 x-11=0$
In all other options highest degree of equation is 2, which also the degree of quadratic equation. But in Option A, degree of polynomial is 1

Question 81 Mark
Choose the correct answer for the following question.
Which one is the quadratic equation?
A.$\frac{5}{x}-3=x^2$
B. $x(x+5)=2$
C. $n-1=2 n$
D.$\frac{1}{x^2}(x+2)=x$
Answer
In option $A \frac{5}{x}-3=x^2 \Rightarrow 5-3 x=x^3$. hence, it is not a quadratic equation.
In Option $B x ( x +5)=2 \Rightarrow x ^2+5 x -2=0$, it is a quadratic equation.
In Option $C n -1=2 n \Rightarrow 2 n - n =-1 \Rightarrow n =-1$, it is not a quadratic equation.
In Option $D \frac{1}{ x ^2}( x +2)= x \Rightarrow x +2= x ^3$, hence, it is not a quadratic equation.
