Question

What is the sum of all valuesof m that satisfy 2m: - 16m 8=0? Bloom d - 0 m 0 09d-0002, 24. P. S

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In general if x2 + ax + b = 0, the sum of the values is -a.

For 2m2 - 16m + 8 = 0 => m2 - 8m + 4 = 0

The sum of the values is 8.

Check

m2 - 8m + 4 = 0 has values m = (8 ± √(48)/2

= (8 ± 4√(3))/2

= 4 ± 2√(3)

Then the sum of the two values is (4 + 2√(13) + (4 -2 √(3)) = 8
