Question

In the equation 17x 2 = 12x, the value of c is
a)17
b)12
c)0

Answer 1

c = 0

Explanation:

Answer 2

For this case we have the following quadratic equation:

`17x ^ 2-12x = 0`

We are asked to find the value of the independent term given by c:

This quadratic equation comes in the form:

`ax ^ 2 + bx + c`

`17x ^ 2-12x + 0 = 0`

Where:

`a = 17\\b = 12\\c = 0`

Then, the value of c is 0.

Answer:

`c = 0`
