I assume you mean the formula for the solution of a quadratic equation. A Quadratic Equation looks like this. They are the numerical coefficient of the quadratic equation.
A quadratic equation in mathematics is defined as a polynomial of second degree whose standard form is ax 2 bx c 0 where a b and c are numerical coefficients and.
The original formula does not work for a 0. Solve an equation of the form a x 2 b x c 0 by using the quadratic formula. First in order for an equation to be a quadratic the a in ax2bxc 0 cant 0 As soon as a 0 you no longer have a 2nd degree equation. They are the numerical coefficient of the quadratic equation.
