a) (108-90)/90*100 = 18/90*100=20%
b) (108-90)/108= 18/108*100=16 2/3%

The value of b is -16 and the value of ac is 60 after comparing with the standard equation.
<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>
Any equation of the form
where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called a quadratic equation.
As we know, the formula for the roots of the quadratic equation is given by:

We have a quadratic function:
= 3x² - 16x + 20
On comparing with standard function:
b = -16
a = 3
c = 20
ac = 3(20) = 60
Thus, the value of b is -16 and the value of ac is 60 after comparing with the standard equation.
