Question 926840: The expression Q(x)= (k-1)^2 x^2+(k^3-1)x+(k^2-1) has more than two roots . Then what could be the value of k? help Please!!!!!! Answer by richard1234(7193) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! No such constant k; polynomials in x of degree 2 have two complex roots by Fundamental Thm. of Algebra. If you let k equal something in terms of x, then you could have more than two roots.
