  2. One real root
  3. No real roots
  4. Infinite roots

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The pair of lines represented by the equation 5x^2 + 6xy + 2y^2 = 0 has:
  • Step 1: Identify the equation given, which is 5x^2 + 6xy + 2y^2 = 0.
  • Step 2: Recognize that this is a quadratic equation in terms of x and y.
  • Step 3: The general form of a quadratic equation is Ax^2 + Bxy + Cy^2 = 0, where A = 5, B = 6, and C = 2.
  • Step 4: Calculate the discriminant using the formula D = B^2 - 4AC.
  • Step 5: Substitute the values: D = (6)^2 - 4(5)(2).
  • Step 6: Calculate D = 36 - 40 = -4.
  • Step 7: Since the discriminant D is negative, it indicates that there are no real roots.
  • Step 8: Therefore, the pair of lines represented by the equation does not exist in the real number system.
