least value of $3m+n$












0












$begingroup$



If $mx^2+nx+6=0$ does not have two disticnt real



roots. Then least value of $3m+n$ is




Try: Let $3m+n=t,$ Then our equation convert into



$mx^2+(t-3m)x+6=0$



Equation does not have real roots



So we have $(t-3m)^2-24mleq 0$



$$t^2-6mt+9m^2-24mgeq 0$$



now i am struck here, could some help me how to solve it , Thanks

    Is there something unwritten here disallowing you from taking $m = n = 0$? I'm looking at this and found that $m ge 0$, so $3m + n$ is minimized when $m = n = 0$, which satisfies the "$mx^2 + nx + 6 = 0$ doesn't have two distinct real roots" condition.

  • $begingroup$
    @tilper $x^2-4x + 6$ also works, giving $3m+n = -1$. So it can be smaller than what you get from $m = n = 0$. That's what's stopping you.

    Ah, you're right, $n$ could be negative. Totally spaced on that.
