When y=0, the general equation becomes
3x²+6x+c=0 (1)
As the two straight lines intercept on the x-axis, equation (1) has two coincident real roots. Therefore,
6²-4(3)c=0 => c=3
By the condition for the general equation to represent two straight line, we have
3(-28)3+2(17/2)(6/2)(-h)-3(17/2)²-(-28)(6/2)²-3(-h)²=0
=> -252-51h-867/4+252-3h²=0
=> 4h²+68h+289=0
=> (2h)²+2.17(2h)+17²=0
=> (2h+17)²=0
=> h=17/2=8.5

Correction for last line:
=> h=-17/2=-8.5

The word "intercept" on line 3 was used wrongly. It should be changed to "intersect".
