Question

What are the values of a, b, and c in the quadratic equation 0 = 5x – 4x2 – 2?

Answer 1

ax²+bx+c=0

0 = 5x – 4x² – 2
-4x² + 5x - 2 =0

a = -4
b = 5
с = -2

Answer 2

`\text{The values of a,b and c are}`

`a=-4, b=5\text{ and }c=-2`

Explanation:

Given the quadratic equation

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

we have to find the values of a, b and c

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

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

`\text{Comparing above equation with }ax^2+bx+c=0\text{, we get}`

`a=-4, b=5\text{ and }c=-2`

which are the required values.
