If(a2-14a+ 13)x2 +(a + 2)x - 2=0 does not have two distinct real roots, and maximum value of a2 - 15a is k, then IKI is equal to
Let f(x)=a2−14a+13x2+(a+2)x−2Equation have no distinct real roots.∴ Either f(x)≥0 or f(x)≤0∀x∈R But f(0)=−2<0∴ f(0)≤0∀x∈R So, f(−1)≤0⇒a2−14a+13−(a+2)−2≤0⇒a2−15a+9≤0⇒a2−15a≤−9So, the maximum value of a2−15a=−9∴ |−9|=9
