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.
For 6 the answer is c because 1 fourth goes into one and a half 6 times so you do 6 times 4 feet which is 24 feet
Given :
A water well rig has dug to a height , H = 60 feet after one full day of continuous use .
To Find :
If the height is currently 143.6 feet how time it been running .
Solution :
It is given that height after 24 hours of use is 60 feet .
So , height loose in 1 hours is :

Now , time taken to cover a height of 143.6 feet is :

Therefore , time taken is 57.44 hours .
Hence , this is the required solution .
