Here we're presented with a quadratic equation which needs to be expanded and then rewritten in descending powers of x:
1x^2 + m^2x^2 + 6mx + 9 - 3 = 0.
Let's group like terms: 1x^2 + m^2x^2 + 6mx + 6 = 0.
The first 2 terms can be rewritten as a single term: (1+m^2)x^2, and so we now have:
(1+m^2)x^2 + 6mx + 6 = 0.
We must now calculate the discriminant and set the resulting expression = to 0, as a preliminary to finding the value of m for which the given quadratic has equal roots:
discriminant: (6m)^2 - 4(1+m^2)(6) = 0
Then 36m^2 - 24(1+m^2) = 0, which simplifies to 12m^2 - 24 = 0.
Then 12 m^2 = 24; m^2 = 2, and m = √2.
When the discriminant is zero, as it is here when m = √2, then the given quadratic has two equal roots.
Answer:
266 1/4th. I hope this helped, and I would appreciate it if you gave it a good rating. :)
Step-by-step explanation:
1,065 ÷ 4 = 266 and remainder = 1 =>
1,065 = 266 × 4 + 1 =
1,065/4 =
(266 × 4 + 1) / 4 =
266 + 1/4 =
266 1/4
