Then translate it

determine the values ​​of m in the equation 4x² - 12x + m-2 = 0, so that it has a unique solution

hollow needle
#

Right, what have you tried?

rapid wharf
#

tried to pass the M to the other side of the =

hollow needle
#

What does a unique solution mean for the quadratic?

rapid wharf
#

well delta needs to be equal to 0

hollow needle
#

Yes

rapid wharf
#

so what i need to do?

hollow needle
#

Well its clear writing D=0 here gives an equation in just m

#

So...

rapid wharf
#

ok

#

i stopped in the part of D = 144-16(m-2)

#

what should i do now?
