Question

Rearrange the equation below to identify the variables a, b and c.
0 = 4x – 5x2​

Answer 1

a = -5x

b = 4

c = 0

Explanation:

binomial equation is written in form of

`ax^2 + bx + c = 0`

given equation

`0 = 4x - 5x^2`

rearranging it we have

`0 = - 5x^2 + 4x + 0`

comparing this equation with
`ax^2 + bx + c = 0`

comparing coefficient of variables with same power.

a = -5x

b = 4

c = 0
