JEE Main 2014 · 19 April · Online · Mathematics · Quadratic Equation
The equation 3 x ^ 2 + x + 5 = x - 3 , where x is real, has
The equation , where is real, has
Options
- Ano solution
- Bexactly four solutions
- Cexactly one solution
- Dexactly two solutions
Correct answer
A. no solution
Step-by-step solution
\sqrt{3{x}^{2} + x + 5} = x - 3 . . . \left(1\right)
We know that if discriminant i.e. then the quadratic is always positive for all real values of the variable.
Now, consider
We have, discriminant
Squaring \left(1\right),3{x}^{2} + x + 5 = {\left(x - 3\right)}^{2}
= 0⇒ x = - 4,x =
But for
Hence, the equation has no solution.
