Answer:here it is !
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic has real roots if the discriminant b^2−4ac is ≥0 where it has equal roots if b^2−4ac = 0
That is b^2 = 4ac
By inspection, we have b=2, 4, or 6.
Let b=2, Hence a = c = 1,
So the values of (a, b, c) is (1, 2, 1).
Let b=4, hence a = 1, c=4 or a = 4 and c = 1 or a = 2, c = 2
Hence the 3 values of (a, b, c) are (1, 4, 4), (4, 4, 1), and (2, 4, 2).
Lastly we have b = 6, hence a = 3, c = 3
That is the value of (a, b, c) is (3, 6, 3). Number of favorable scores = 5
Total number of scores = 216
Therefore the probability is 5/216
