The solution of the equation $2{x^2} + 3x - 9 \le 0$ is given by
Let $f(x)=a x^2+b x+c$, where $a, b, c$ are integers, Suppose $f(1)=0,40 < f(6) < 50,60 < f(7) < 70$ and $1000 t < f(50) < 1000(t+1)$ for some integer $t$. Then, the value of $t$ is
The number of distinct real roots of $x^4-4 x^3+12 x^2+x-1=0$ is
Let $m$ and $n$ be the numbers of real roots of the quadratic equations $x^2-12 x+[x]+31=0$ and $x ^2-5| x +2|-4=0$ respectively, where $[ x ]$ denotes the greatest integer $\leq x$. Then $m ^2+ mn + n ^2$ is equal to $..............$.
Let $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_6$ be the roots of the polynomial equation $x^6+2 x^5+4 x^4+8 x^3+16 x^2+32 x+64=0$. Then,
