5. Answer: see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If the roots are m and 3m, then x = m and x = 3m

⇒ x - m = 0 and x - 3m = 0

⇒ (x - m)(x - 3m) = 0

⇒ x² - 4mx + 3m² = 0

Since x² + px + q = 0 then p = -4m and q = 3m²

3p² = 3(-4m)² 16q = 16(3m²)

= 3(16m²) = 48m²

= 48m²

3p² = 48m² = 16q ⇒ 3p² = 16q

6. Answer: 8 or 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of the entire rectangle (A = L × w) is 12 × 10 = 120

The Area of the shaded region is 72, so the Area of the non-shaded region is 120 - 72 = 48.

There are two non-shaded triangles.

Bigger non-shaded Δ: L = 12-x, w = 10 ⇒ $A = \dfrac{10(12-x)}{2}$
Smaller non-shaded Δ: L = x, w = x ⇒ $A=\dfrac{x(x)}{2}$

Combine the Areas of both triangles and set it equal to the Area of the non-shaded region:

$\dfrac{x(x)}{2}+\dfrac{10(12-x)}{2}=48\\\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{2}+\dfrac{120-10x}{2}=48\\\\\\\dfrac{x^2-10x+120}{2}=48\\\\\\x^2-10x+120=96\\\\x^2-10x+24=0\\\\(x-4)(x-6)=0\\\\x - 4 = 0\quad or\quad x-6=0\\x=4\qquad or\qquad x=6\\\\\text{Based on the image provided, it appears that the x-value will be the}\\\text{smallest of the two possible solutions (4), but both solutions are valid.}$
