Cevap

−8-8
To find the number of solutions for the system of equations, we set the equations equal to each other: 3x2−5x+4=7x+k3x^2 - 5x + 4 = 7x + k. Subtracting 7x7x and kk from both sides gives the standard quadratic equation 3x2−12x+(4−k)=03x^2 - 12x + (4 - k) = 0. For a quadratic equation to have exactly one real solution, its discriminant, b2−4acb^2 - 4ac, must equal 00. Substituting a=3a = 3, b=−12b = -12, and c=4−kc = 4 - k into the discriminant formula gives (−12)2−4(3)(4−k)=0(-12)^2 - 4(3)(4 - k) = 0. Simplifying this equation yields 144−12(4−k)=0144 - 12(4 - k) = 0, which simplifies to 144−48+12k=0144 - 48 + 12k = 0, or 96+12k=096 + 12k = 0. Solving for kk gives k=−8k = -8.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Equate the two equations to eliminate yy and form a single quadratic equation.
3x2−5x+4=7x+k⇒3x2−12x+(4−k)=03x^2 - 5x + 4 = 7x + k \Rightarrow 3x^2 - 12x + (4 - k) = 0
To find the points of intersection of the system, we set the expressions for yy equal to each other.
2
Identify the coefficients of the quadratic equation in standard form ax2+bx+c=0ax^2 + bx + c = 0.
a=3a = 3, b=−12b = -12, and c=4−kc = 4 - k
These coefficients are needed to calculate the discriminant of the quadratic equation.
3
Set the discriminant Δ=b2−4ac\Delta = b^2 - 4ac equal to zero and solve for kk.
(−12)2−4(3)(4−k)=0⇒144−12(4−k)=0⇒12(4−k)=144⇒4−k=12⇒k=−8(-12)^2 - 4(3)(4 - k) = 0 \Rightarrow 144 - 12(4 - k) = 0 \Rightarrow 12(4 - k) = 144 \Rightarrow 4 - k = 12 \Rightarrow k = -8
A quadratic equation has exactly one real solution if and only if its discriminant is equal to zero.
