When a quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c has a double root, the discriminant,
D=b^2-4ac=0
Here
a=2,
b=b,
c=18
and
D=b^2-4ac=b^2-4*2*18=0
solve for b
b^2-144=0
=> b= ± sqrt(144)= ± 12
So in order that the given equation has double roots, the possible values of b are ± 12.

Answer:
y = (3/4)x
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Find the slope of the line. As we go from ( -8,-6) to (12,9), x increases by 20 and y increases by 15. Thus, the slope, m, is m = rise / run = 15/20 = 3/4
2) Recognize that the y-intercept is zero (0) because this is direct variation; the line goes thru the origin.
3) write the equation of the line: y = mx + b becomes y = (3/4)x
Answer:
2 x 3 + 7 x 2 + 14 x + 12÷ 2x+ 3 = <u> x² +2x+ 4 </u>
Step-by-step explanation:
We multiply the first term 2x of the divisor with a term ( quotient) to get the first term of the dividend. Then we multiply the same term with each term of the divisor and subtract it from the dividend. The process continues unless we get the zero or a much smaller number than the dividend as the remainder
