Quadratic equation. Find the value of m so that the roots of the equation (4 - m) x^2 + (2m + 4)x + (8m + 1) = 0 may be equal.

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

Louise begins factoring the polynomial, which has four terms.
ad-work [718]

Louise wants to factorize completely the given polynomial 4x^{3}+12x^{2}+5x+15

Grouping first, second terms together and third, fourth terms together

= 4x^{3}+12x^{2}+5x+15

Taking 4x^{2} common from first and second terms of the given expression and taking 5 common from the third and fourth terms.

==4x^{2}(x+3)+5(x+3)

Taking (x+3) common from the given expression,

==(4x^{2}+5)(x+3) is the completely factored form.

7. Marco is making beaded bracelets. Each
stiks02 [169]

One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number.

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.

2: three occurrences

3: one occurrence

So, our LCM should be

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24.

So, Marco can buy, at the very least, 24 beads of each color to have equal colors of beads.
