Question

3. The following are the values of a, b, and c that Edna, Luisa,

Jane
and Christy got when they expressed 5-3x = 2x² in standard form
Edna :a=-2, b = -3,c=5.
Jane: a=2, b= -3,C=-5
Luisa : a = -2,b=3,6=-5 Christy: a=-2, b = -3,6=-5
who do you think got the correct values of ab
and c in the given equation?
a. Edna
b. Luisa
Jane
d. Christy

Answer 1

a = 2

b = 3

c = -5

Explanation:

We are given Algebraic expression:

5-3x = 2x²

We rewrite it in standard form

2x² + 3x - 5

Algebraic form :

ax² + bx + c

Hence, the values of a, b, c is given below:

a = 2

b = 3

c = -5
