Given the inequality:
$$\frac{x^{2}}{4} > 0$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$\frac{x^{2}}{4} = 0$$
Solve:
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = \frac{1}{4}$$
$$b = 0$$
$$c = 0$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c =
(0)^2 - 4 * (1/4) * (0) = 0
Because D = 0, then the equation has one root.
x = -b/2a = -0/2/(1/4)
$$x_{1} = 0$$
$$x_{1} = 0$$
$$x_{1} = 0$$
This roots
$$x_{1} = 0$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} < x_{1}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{1} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{1}{10}$$
substitute to the expression
$$\frac{x^{2}}{4} > 0$$
$$\frac{\left(- \frac{1}{10}\right)^{2}}{4} > 0$$
1/400 > 0
the solution of our inequality is:
$$x < 0$$
