Question

PLZZ HELP What are the values of a, b, and c in the quadratic equation 0 = one-halfx2 – 3x – 2? a = one-half, b = 3, c = 2 a = one-half, b = –3, c = –2 a = one-half, b = 3, c = –2 a = one-half, b = –3, c = 2

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

did it on edge

Answer 2

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

(second option shown)

Explanation:

Recall that the standard form of a quadratic equation is normally given as:

`ax^2+bx+c=0`

Therefore the coefficient "
`a`" that accompanies the
`x^2` in your given expression is: "1/2",

The coefficient "
`b`" that accompanies the term in "
`x`" in your case is: "-3"

and the coefficient "c" that is the constant term in your case is "-2"

So the correct answer is the second option shown
