Question

Consider this quadratic equation:

2x2+12=0
Comparing it to the standard form, name a, b, and c
a=
b=
c=

Answer 1

a=2

b=0

c=12

Explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c=0

Here's the given equation:

2x²+12=0

You might notice that the term bx is not there (there is just ax² and c). That means that b is 0.

The term 2x² is the term ax² in this equation. The coefficient in the term is 2, so that means that a is 2

12 has no variable, so that means it'll be c in the equation.

Hope this helps!
