(2i) a + b + c = 8
(a + b + c)2 = 64
a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca = 64
24 + 2ab + 2c(a + b) = 64
ab + c(8 - c) = 20
ab = c2 - 8c + 20
(ii) Sum of roots = a + b = 8 - c
Product of roots = ab = c2 - 8c + 20
Hence a and b are roots of equation:
t2 - (8 - c)t + (c2 - 8c + 20) = 0
(iii) Since a, b, c are real, the discriminant of the equation t2 - (8 - c)t + (c2 - 8c + 20) = 0
should be non-negative, i.e.
(8 - c)2 - 4(c2 - 8c + 20) >= 0
64 - 16c + c2 - 4c2 + 32c - 80 >= 0
3c2 - 16c + 16 <= 0
(3c - 4)(c - 4) <= 0
1/4 <= c <= 4
Using similar approach, we can obtain 1/4 <= a <= 4 and 1/4 <= b <= 4
