Which of the following polynomials does not have real roots? A. x2 - 17x - 7 B. -x4 + 4x2 + 6 C. x4 + 2x2 + 2 D. 2x2 - 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x^2+1)^2=c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lorda mercy. for each one you have to compute \[b^2-4ac\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it is negative, then no real zeros

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looks like A has quad^ see satellite

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D does for sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b works too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh you are right. no matter since it is a quadratic in x^2 though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they are all quadratics i think is why you can just compute the discriminant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think your right too, i dont see any imagin's in these

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c is out. it has no real zeros

OpenStudy (anonymous):

opps i put( x^2+1^2 but thats wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4-4(1)(2)<0 so it does have imagin's
