Q1 / 82 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Mathematics · Quadratic Equation

If a+b+c > 9c4 and the equation ax2+2bx - 5c=0 has non-real complex roots, then

  • A
    a > 0, c > 0
  • Correct answer
    B
    a > 0, c < 0
  • C
    a < 0, c < 0
  • D
    a < 0, c > 0

Solution

4a+4b+4c - 9c > 0

4a+4b - 5c > 0

fx=ax2+2bx - 5c, D < 0

f2=4a+4b - 5c > 0


Figure

a>0 and

-5c>0⇒c<0⇒a>0c<0

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
