Product of real roots of the equation t2x2+|x|+9=0 [2002]a)is always p...
**Answer:**
To solve the equation t^2 * x^2 * |x| - 9 = 0, we can break it down into two cases: when x is positive and when x is negative.
**Case 1: x is positive**
In this case, the equation becomes t^2 * x^3 - 9 = 0. Solving for x, we have:
x^3 = 9/t^2
Taking the cube root of both sides, we get:
x = (9/t^2)^(1/3)
Since t^2 is always positive, the cube root of (9/t^2) will also be positive. Therefore, the product of the real roots in this case will be positive.
**Case 2: x is negative**
In this case, the equation becomes t^2 * x^3 + 9 = 0. Solving for x, we have:
x^3 = -9/t^2
Taking the cube root of both sides, we get:
x = -(9/t^2)^(1/3)
Again, since t^2 is always positive, the cube root of (-9/t^2) will also be positive. However, the negative sign in front of the cube root makes x negative. Therefore, the product of the real roots in this case will be negative.
Since the product of the real roots is positive in both cases, we can conclude that the product of the real roots is always positive. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A'.
