Give the values a, b, and c needed to write the equations standard form. 2/3 (x-4) (x+5) = 1

The standard form of the quadratic equation is given by:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c

What we must do in this case is to rewrite the given equation.

We have then:

2/3 (x-4) (x + 5) = 1

(x-4) (x + 5) = 3/2

(x ^ 2 + 5x-4x-20) = 3/2

2x ^ 2 + 2x-40 = 3

2x ^ 2 + 2x-43 = 0

Thus, the values of a, b and c are:

a = 2

b = 2

c = - 43

Answer:

a = 2

b = 2

c = - 43
