For you to make an equation a quadratic equation, you need everything to be on one side, so you add one to both sides.
<span>2x^2 + 3x + 0=0 </span>
<span>a=2, b=3, c=0 </span>
<span>b^2-4ac (In the next step just plug in your variables) </span>
<span>3^2 - 4(2)(0) </span>
<span>9 - 8(0) </span>
<span>9 - 0 </span>
<span>Your answer=9</span>
Since 5=15/3
5^x = (15/3)^x = 15^x / 3^3
Choices A and D
Lets take 6/9. 9 is a multiple of 27, multiply 9 times 3 for a denominator of 27. Whatever we to do the bottom, we do to the top. So multiply 6 by 3 as well for numerator of 18. This gives us our answer, 18/27.
