How many values of c in the equation x^2-5x+c results in rational roots which are integers
1)1 2)3 3)6 4)infinite
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- c=4 => x=1,4
c=-6 => x=-1,6
c=-14 => x=-2,7
c=-24 => x=-3,8
c=-36 => x=9,-4
c=-50 => x=-5,10
c=-55 => x=-6,11 and so on...
Hence, Infinite is the answer

- The answer is INFINITE.
1.c=6
2.c=-6
3.c=4
and there should be any negative value whose multiplication difference is 5.
Like: -14(2,-7)
Like: -24(3,-8) and so on.
So,the answer is INFINITE. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
