Question

What are the values of a, b, and c in the quadratic equation 0 = x2 – 3x – 2?

a = 1/2, b = 3, c = 2
a =1/2 , b = -3, c=-2
a =1/2 , b = 3, c = –2
a =1/2 , b = -3, c = 2

Answer 1

I believe it's the second one! Not one hundred percent sure - but I strongly believe it is!
I hope all is well, and you do okay on the test! (:

Answer 2

a=1/2, b=-3, c=-2

Explanation:

Given quadratic equation is

y=
`(1)/(2)x^2-3x-2`

Quadratic equation is in the form of y =ax^2 +bx+c

WE compare the equation and find the value of a,b,c

The value of 'a' is the value before x^2 . a=1/2

the value of 'b' is the value before x . b= -3

the value of 'c' is the constant . c=-2

so the value of a,b,c is a=1/2, b=-3, c=-2
