The strategy should be this:
Perform the necessary operations to simplify the equation into either general form or standard form. The independent variable for this should be x. Form the expression for the Discriminant, and relate this to greater than or equal to zero, and solve for m.

Try that fully before asking further for help on this.

What value of M (The variable) makes this equation true?
(5x+5)(x+m)=5x^2+15x+10
This question is about polynomials. Thank you!

(5x + 5)(x + m) =
5x(x + m) + 5(x + m) =
When is equated to , we find that: 5mx + 5x = 15x, and that 5m = 10
Solve any of these 2 for m, and you should get:
