Answer:
k = 2√6 , roots are = - √3/√2
k = -2√6 , roots are = √3/√2
Step-by-step explanation:
2X² + kX + 3 = 0
will have equal roots if
k² - 4(2)(3) = 0
k² = 24
k = +/- 2√6
so
Case 1
2X² + 2√6x + 3 = 0
2X² + √6x + √6x + 3 = 0
√2X(√2X + √3) + √3 (√2X +√3) = 0
(√2X +√3)(√2X +√3) = 0
(√2X + √3)^2 = 0
X = - (√3/√2)
Case 2
2X² - 2√6x + 3 = 0
2X² - √6x - √6x + 3 = 0
√2X(√2X - √3) - √3 (√2X - √3) = 0
(√2X -√3)(√2X -√3) = 0
(√2X - √3)^2 = 0
X = √3/√2
