The quadratic has one root with multiplicity 2 if the discriminant is 0, which is

(2m+4)^2-4(4-m)(8m+1)

(That is, for a quadratic ax^2+bx+c, the discriminant is b^2-4ac.)

Set the discriminant equal to 0 and solve for m:

(2m+4)^2-4(4-m)(8m+1)=0

4m^2+16m+16+32m^2-124m-16=0

36m^2-108=0

36m(m-3)=0

\implies m=0\text{ or }m=3

What is the relationship among direct variation,lines,rates of change, and slope?
JulsSmile [24]
A direct variation is a proportional equation. Such as:

For every 3 cookies, linda gets 1 glass of milk. The equation for this is y=3x where y is the glasses and x is the cookies. this is a direct variation. It also has a linear line. Linear means straight. Rate of change and slope are the exact same thing. They are the value of 'm' in y=mx+b
