Question 3
Solution
The coefficients of the given equation are real. One of the roots is 1 + i which implies that both roots must
be imaginary as imaginary roots occur in pairs. This in turn implies that the other root is 1 i. Therefore,
the equations must be
x 2 (1 i 1 i) x (1 i)(1 i ) 0
x2 2 x 2 0

Therefore,

Question 4
Solution
x2 + ax + b = 0 has roots: and , which implies that

x2 ax b ( x )( x )
Similarly,

x2 cx b ( x )( x )
Using the properties of sum and product of the roots, we get

( )( )( )( ) ( 2 c d )( 2 c d )
We also know that,

2 a b 0 2 a b
2 a b 0 2 a b
Replacing the above values in equation (i), we get

( 2 c d )( 2 c d )
[(c a) d b] [(c a) d b]
(c a)2 (c a)(d b)( ) (d b)2

(c a)2 b a(c a)(d b) (d b)2

The denominator of the given function is x10 x9 + x8 x7 + 1.

x 1; x10 x9 ; x8 x7 . Therefore, the denominator of the given function is positive.

x 0 , each term of the denominator is positive.
0 x 1 , the denominator is

x9 (x 1) + x7(x 1) + 1 = x10 + x8 (1 x) + 1 x7
which is positive and therefore each term is positive.
At x = 0, the denominator is 1. Therefore, there is no value of x for which f (x) is not defined.
Therefore, Df = R.
