RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 1

A quadratic equation whose one root is 3 is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 1

x = 3 satisfies only the equation x2−5x+6 = 0
As (3)2−5×3+6 = 0
⇒ 9−15+6 = 0
⇒ 15−15 = 0
⇒ 0 = 0
⇒ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 2

The common root of 2x2+x−6 = 0 and x2−3x−10 = 0 is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 2

Given: p (x) = 2x2 + x - 6 = 0 and q (x) = x2 - 3x — 10 = 0
∴ p (-2) = 2(-2)2 + (-2) - 6 = 0 = 8 - 2 - 6 = 8 - 8 = 0
∴ q (-2) = (-2)2 - 3 (-2) - 10 = 0 = 4 + 6 - 10 = 10 - 10 = 0
Since p (-2) = 0 and q (-2) = 0 therefore, - 2 is the common root of 2x2 + x - 6 = 0 and x2 - 3x - 10 = 0

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 3

In a cricket matchKumble took three wickets less than twice the number of wickets taken by Srinath. The product of the number of wickets taken by these two is 20, then the number of wickets taken by Kumble is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 3

Let the number of wickets taken by Srinath be x then the number of wickets taken by Kumble will be 2x−3

According to question, x (2x−3) = 20

⇒ 2x2−3x−20 = 0

⇒ 2x2−8x+5x−20 = 0

⇒ 2x(x−4)+5(x−4) = 0

⇒ (x−4)(2x+5) = 0

⇒ x−4 = 0and 2x+5 = 0

Therefore, number of wickets taken by Srinath is 4.
Then number of wickets taken by Kumble = 2 x 4 - 3 = 5 

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 4

(x2+1)− x2 = 0 has

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 4

Given: (x2+1)− x= 0
⇒ x+ 1  + 2x − x= 0
⇒ 2x + 1 = 0
⇒ x = −1/2
Therefore, (x2+1)− x2 = 0 has no real roots.

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 5

If the sum and product of the roots of the equation kx2+6x+4k = 0 are equal, then k =

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 5

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 6

One of the roots of the quadratic equation a2x2−3abx+2b2 = 0 is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 6

Explanation here:a2x2−3abx+2b= 0
⇒ a2x2−2abx−abx+2b= 0
⇒ ax(ax−2b)−b(ax−2b) = 0
⇒ (ax−b)(ax−2b) = 0
⇒ x−b = 0and ax−2b = 0

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 7

The product of two successive integral multiples of 5 is 1050. Then the numbers are

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 7

Let one multiple of 5 be x then the next consecutive multiple of will be (x+5) According to question,

x = −35 is not possible therefore x = 30
Then the other multiple of 5 is x+5 = 30+5 = 35
Then the number are 30 and 35.

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 8

The angry Arjun carried some arrows for fighting with Bheeshma. With half the arrows, he cut down the arrows thrown by Bheeshma on him and with six other arrows he killed the rath driver of Bheeshma. With one arrow each he knocked down respectively the rath, flag and bow of Bheeshma. Finally with one more than four times the square root of arrows he laid Bheeshma unconscious on an arrow bed. The total number of arrows that Arjun had is

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 14

Which of the following has two distinct roots?

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 14

In equation x2+x−5 = 0
a = 1,b = 1,c = −5
∴ b2−4ac = (1)2−4×1×(−5) = 1 + 20 = 21
Since b2−4ac > 0 therefore, x2+x−5 = 0 has two distict roots.

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 15

If ‘a’ and ‘b’ are the roots of the equation x2+ax+b = 0, then a+b =

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 15

Since sum of the roots = -b/a ∴ a+ b = -a/1 = -a

RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 16

If x = 2 is a root of the quadratic equation 3x2 – px – 2 = 0, then the value of ‘p’ is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Quadratic Equations - Question 16

Given: p(x) = 3x2−px−2 = 0
∴ p(2) = 3(2)2−p(2)−2 = 0
⇒ 12−2p−2 = 0
⇒ −2p = −10
⇒ p = 5
