(iii) ( )( ) 2 2 4 8 12 1 21 214 4 x mx x xm xx += − + + = −+ Since 02 m<< , 10 42 m<< , 1 44 myx= − will not intersect with the graph of 2 2 21 xy x= + + . Hence, there is no real root for the equation ( )( ) 24 8 12 1x mx x+= − + . (iv) Since there are no real roots for the equation, ( )( ) 24 8 12 1x mx x+= − + , the two roots are complex roots. Since all the coefficients in the equation are real, the roots must occur in complex conjugate pairs, i.e. ix ab= + or ix ab= − , ,a b∈ .

Step 1: Number the members of the volunteers, say from 1 to 30,000. Step 2: Randomly select 500 of these members by generating 500 distinct random numbers and then selecting the corresponding members to form the required sample (b) Random selection means that the subjects in the sample were assigned to a treatment at random, without bias. Or The selection of patients to assign treatment to is free of bias. 7(i) 1. The condition of one semi-conductor chip is independent of the condition of any other semi-conductor chips.
