I have no idea how I should solve this as all the given are variables

[Georgetheking]

Consider on an axis x'ox the two variable points m'(x') and m"(x") show that for a fixed point I(a) IM'xIM" = k
(IM' and IM" vectors)
and k is a constant number.
This is supposed to be part of a quadratic equations/polynomials test , please help!

Sorry, but I'm not really sure what much of any of this means. What is an "axis x'ox?" What do m'(x') and m''(x'') mean? Are m' and m'' perhaps meant to be functions of x' and x'' respectively? Are you meant to be working in 2-dimensional space, or 3-dimensional space? I'm really grasping at straws here. When you reply back, please post the full and exact text of the exercise, quoted word-for-word if possible. Thank you.
