\maketitle

\section*{1a)}
\(x^4 - 24x^2 + 144 = (x^2 - 12)^2\)

\section*{1b)}
\(8t^6 + 27b^3 = 2^3t^{3 \cdot 2} + 3^3 \cdot b^3 = (2x^2)^3 + (3y)^3\) (Unsure of next steps)

\section*{2a, b)}
Unclear

\section*{3a)}
\((t-5)^2(t+k+k^2)\\
    = (t^2 - 10t + 25)(k^2 + k + t)\\
    = t^2k^2+t^2k+t^3-10tk^2-10tk^2-10t^2+25k^2+25k+25t\\
    = t^3+t^2k^2-10tk^2+t^2k-10t^2k-10t^2+25k^2-10tk+25k+25t
\)

\section*{3b)}
\((x+y+2z)^2 = x^2+xy+2xz+yx+y^2+2yz+2zx+4z^2 = x^2+y^2+4z^2+2xy+4xz+4yz\)


\section*{4)}
\(4x^3-4x^2-11x+6=0\)
\[ 2 \hspace{.25cm}
\begin{array}{rrr|r}
    +4 & -4 & -11 & +6 \\
    & +8  & +8  & -6 \\
\hline
    +4 & +4  & -3  & 0
\end{array} \Rightarrow x_1 = 2

\phantom{} \hspace{1.3cm}\(4x^2+4x-3=0 \rightarrow x_{2,3}=
    \frac{-4 \mp \sqrt{16+48}}{8}= \frac{-4 \mp 8}{8} \Rightarrow
    x_{2,3} \in \left\{-\frac{3}{2}, \frac{1}{2}\right\}\)

Solution: \(x \in \left\{-\frac{3}{2}, \frac{1}{2}, 2\right\}\)

\section*{5a)}
\(kx^2+(k-1)x+\frac{1}{4}=0 \rightarrow \Delta < 0\)

\(a=k,\ b=k-1,\ c=\frac{1}{4}\)

\(\Rightarrow (k-1)^2-4 \cdot k \cdot \frac{1}{4} = k^2-2k+1-k = k^2-3k+1\)

\(\Rightarrow k^2-3k+1<0 \Rightarrow k_{1,2}=\frac{3 \mp \sqrt{9-4}}{2}\)

\(k_1=\frac{3-\sqrt{5}}{2}; \quad k_2=\frac{3+\sqrt{5}}{2} \Rightarrow
\text{The equation has no real solution in the interval } \frac{3-\sqrt{5}}{2} < k < \frac{3+\sqrt{5}}{2}\)

\section*{5b)}
\(2x^2+x+\frac{1}{4}=0 \rightarrow \Delta=\mp \sqrt{1-2} \rightarrow 
\Delta < 0 \rightarrow x \in \left\{\right\}\)

\section*{6)}
\(2x^2 - 2x +2\)

Simmetry axis: \(x=\frac{-b}{2a}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}\)

Delta (check for intersections with abscissae):
\(b^2 - 4ac = 4-16 = -12 \rightarrow \Delta < 0 \rightarrow\)
No intersection

Vertex: \((V_x, V_y) = \left(\frac{-b}{2a}, f(V_x)\right)=
\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{2}\right)\)

Points: \vspace*{-0.5cm}
