Solve for k:
10-k x+x^2 = 0
Multiply both sides by -1:
-10+k x-x^2 = 0
Add x^2+10 to both sides:
k x = x^2+10
Divide both sides by x:
Answer: |
| k = x+10/x
x^2-kx+10=0
k can equal anything ://
if you want x to have real solutions then the determinant b^2-4ac must be greater than or equal to zero
\(k^2-40\ge0\\ k^2\ge40\\ k\ge\sqrt{40}\;\;\;or\;\;k\le-\sqrt{40}\\ approximate\; end\; points\\ k\ge6.32\;\;\;or\;\;k\le-6.32\\\)
If x is real and k is rational then k can be any number that makes the above inequality true.

I suspect your question is poorly worded and the meaning is different but I am not sure what that would be ://
Maybe x and k BOTH have to be rational numbers. Mmmm
WEll in this case there are still many answers but the determinant (b^2-4ac) must be a perfect square.
if k = 7 then
x^2-7x+10=0
(x-2)(x-5)=0
x=2 or x=5
This is just one of many possible answers.

I chose 7 because k^2-40 must be a square number.
so k^2
