If the line x+2 y=1 , where R , does not meet the hyperbola x²-9 y²=9 , then a possible value of is:
Options
- A0.5
- B0.6
- C0.7
- D0.8
Correct answer
D. 0.8
Step-by-step solution
Hyperbola: x^2 9 - y^2 = 1 . Line: y = 1 - x 2 . Substituting: x^2 - 9 (1- x)^2 4 = 9 (4 - 9 ^2)x^2 + 18 x - 45 = 0 . For no intersection (when 4 - 9 ^2 0 ): discriminant D = 324 ^2 + 180(4 - 9 ^2) -1296 ^2 + 720 5 9 . | | > 5 3 0.745 . Among the options, only = 0.8 satisfies this condition.
