Full solution

Q. Find the set values for pp such that px2+2x+4p<0px^2 + 2x + 4p < 0 for all cc
  1. Identify the quadratic function: Identify the quadratic function. px2+2x+4p<0p x^{2} + 2 x + 4 p < 0
  2. Determine the discriminant: Determine the discriminant of the quadratic function.\newlineDiscriminant, D=b24acD = b^2 - 4ac\newlineHere, a=pa = p, b=2b = 2, c=4pc = 4p\newlineD=(2)24(p)(4p)D = (2)^2 - 4(p)(4p)\newlineD=416p2D = 4 - 16p^2
  3. Check discriminant for negativity: For the quadratic to be negative for all xx, the discriminant must be less than 00.416p2<04 - 16p^2 < 0
  4. Solve the inequality for p: Solve the inequality for p.\newline16p2<4-16p^2 < -4\newlinep2>14p^2 > \frac{1}{4}
  5. Take square root of both sides: Take the square root of both sides. p>12p > \frac{1}{2} or p<12p < -\frac{1}{2}
  6. Confirm solution set: Check for math errors and confirm the solution set.\newlineNo math errors detected. The solution set is correct.
