Answer:

The value of m would be 2 or - 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a quadratic equation [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] has two different real roots,

If [tex]b^2-4ac> 0[/tex]

It has two equal real roots,

If [tex]b^2-4ac=0[/tex]

While it has two different complex roots,

If [tex]b^2-4ac<0[/tex]

Here, the given equation is,

[tex]mx^2+12x+9m=0[/tex]

By comparing,

a = m, b = 12 and c = 9m,

By the above properties,

For equal roots,

[tex](12)^2-4(m)(9m)=0[/tex]

[tex]144-36m^2=0[/tex]

[tex]-36m^2 = -144[/tex]

[tex]m^2 = 4\implies m\pm 2[/tex]

Hence, the value of m would be 2 or - 2.
