Hi Rupali,

 

The discriminant of the QE is,

 

D = 25b2 - 12ac = 25(-a-c)2 - 12ac = 25a2+25c2+50ac-12ac = 25a2+25c2+38ac

   = 6a2+6b2+19a2+19c2+38ac = 6a2+6b2+19(a+c)2 -------- (which is always poitive, as they are square terms)

 

As D > 0, the roots of this QE are always real and distinct.

 

Hope that helps.

 

All the best.

Regards,

Ashwin (IIT Madras).
