Using the discriminant of a quadratic equation, it is found that the quadratic equation would have one repeated solution for m = -3.
<h3>What is the quadratic equation?</h3>
The quadratic equation is given as follows:
mx² + 12x - 12.
<h3>What is the discriminant of a quadratic equation and how does it influence the solutions?</h3>
A quadratic equation is modeled by:

The discriminant is:

The solutions are as follows:
- If
, it has 2 real solutions.
- If
, it has 1 real solutions.
- If
, it has 2 complex solutions.
For this problem, the coefficients are:
a = m, b = 12, c = -12.
Hence the discriminant is:
b² - 4ac = 144 + 48m.
We want it to be of 0, hence:
144 + 48m = 0
m = -144/48
m = -3.

A line with undefined slope has an equation x=a.
So, for a line that passes through the point (x,y) = (-3,5) ,
has the equation x= - 3.
Answer:
120
Step-by-step explanation:
We're told that



where the last fact is due to the law of total probability:



so that
and
are complementary.
By definition of conditional probability, we have



We make use of the addition rule and complementary probabilities to rewrite this as


![\implies P(B)-[1-P(A\cup B)^C]=[1-P(B)]-P(A\cup B^C)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%20P%28B%29-%5B1-P%28A%5Ccup%20B%29%5EC%5D%3D%5B1-P%28B%29%5D-P%28A%5Ccup%20B%5EC%29)
![\implies2P(B)=2-[P(A\cup B)^C+P(A\cup B^C)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies2P%28B%29%3D2-%5BP%28A%5Ccup%20B%29%5EC%2BP%28A%5Ccup%20B%5EC%29%5D)
![\implies2P(B)=[1-P(A\cup B)^C]+[1-P(A\cup B^C)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies2P%28B%29%3D%5B1-P%28A%5Ccup%20B%29%5EC%5D%2B%5B1-P%28A%5Ccup%20B%5EC%29%5D)


By the law of total probability,


and substituting this into
gives
![2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+[P(B)-P(A\cap B)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2P%28B%29%3DP%28A%5Ccup%20B%29%2B%5BP%28B%29-P%28A%5Ccap%20B%29%5D)
