x=−4 √ or x ≠ 1√ 5
both answers and discard
1.1. x 2−x−20> 0
4 ( x−5 ) ( x+ 4 )> 0 √ factors

+¿ −¿ +¿ number line(or graph)

-4 5 √
∴ x← 4 √ or x >5 √
both intervals
or
∴ x ∈(−∞ ;−4) ∪(5 ; ∞ ) 4
1.2 √ m+ √ n=√ 7+ √ 48
∴ m+2 √ mn+ n=7 + √ 4 × √12 √ square both sides
∴ m+ n=7 and mn=12
m2 +2 mn+n 2=( m+ n )2 √ squaring
2 2 2 re-arrange terms
m +n =( m+n ) −2 mn √
∴ m2 +n 2=72−2 ( 12 )

∆=b 2−4 ac
¿( p)2−4( p 2+1)(1) √ substitute into ∆

¿ p2−4 p2−4
−3 p2−4
¿−3 p 2−4 √
∴ ∆<0 ( p2 ≥0 ;−3 p2−4<0) √ ∆ <0
∴ the roots are non-real
