<h2>Steps:</h2>

So for this, we will be completing the square to solve for m. Firstly, subtract 8 on both sides:

2m^2-16m=-8

Next, divide both sides by 2:

m^2-8m=-4

Next, we want to make the left side of the equation a perfect square. To find the constant of this perfect square, divide the m coefficient by 2, then square the quotient. In this case:

-8 ÷ 2 = -4, (-4)² = 16

Add 16 to both sides of the equation:

m^2-8m+16=12

Next, factor the left side:

(m-4)^2=12

Next, square root both sides of the equation:

m-4=\pm \sqrt{12}

Next, add 4 to both sides of the equation:

m=4\pm \sqrt{12}

Now, while this is your answer, you can further simplify the radical using the product rule of radicals:

  • Product rule of radicals: √ab = √a × √b

√12 = √4 × √3 = 2√3.

m=4\pm 2\sqrt{3}

<h2>Answer:</h2>

In exact form, your answer is m=4\pm \sqrt{12}\ \textsf{OR}\ m=4\pm 2\sqrt{3}

In approximate form, your answers are (rounded to the hundreths) m=7.46, 0.54
