Question

Alessandro wrote the quadratic equation –6 = x2 + 4x – 1 in standard form. What is the value of c in his new equation?

Answer 1

X^2+4x-1+6=0
x^2+4x+5=0
c=5
c is 5

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of c is $5$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The standard form of the quadratic equation is equal to

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

In this problem we have

$-6=x^{2}+4x-1$

Convert to standard form

Equate the quadratic equation to zero

$x^{2}+4x-1+6=0$

$x^{2}+4x+5=0$

so

$a=1\\b=4\\c=5$
