Answer

Since, 23\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}} is a solution of equation 3x2 + mx + 2 = 0.

3.(23)2+m(23)+2=03×23+2+m(23)=02+2+m(23)=04+m(23)=0m(23)=4m=4×32m=223m=26.\Rightarrow 3.\Big(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\Big)^2 + m\Big(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\Big) + 2 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 3 \times \dfrac{2}{3} + 2 + m\Big(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\Big) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 2 + 2 + m\Big(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\Big) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 4 + m\Big(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\Big) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow m\Big(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\Big) = -4 \\[1em] \Rightarrow m = -4 \times \sqrt{\dfrac{3}{2}} \\[1em] \Rightarrow m = -2\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3} \\[1em] \Rightarrow m = -2\sqrt{6}.

Hence, value of m is 26.-2\sqrt{6}.
