Question

What are the values of a, b, and c in the quadratic equation –2x2 + 4x – 3 = 0?

Answer 1

the quadratic equation is ax^2 +bx+c=0
So a will be -2, b = 4, c =-3

Answer 2

The value of a, b and c are -2, 4 and -3 respectively.

Explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

`-2x^2+4x-3=0` .... (1)

The general form of a quadratic equation is

`ax^2+bx+c=0` .... (2)

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

`a=-2,b=4,c=-3`

Therefore the value of a, b and c are -2, 4 and -3 respectively.
