When the quadratic equation y = (x − 2)(3x + 1) is written in standard form, what is the value of the coefficient "b"?

Answer 1

y=3x^2 -5x -2 b=-5

Answer 2

coefficient b is 5

Answer 3

\[y= 3x ^{2}-5x-2 \] so b=-5 (you just have to develop the first expression)

Answer 4

possible solutions
a. −5
b. 3
c. −2
d. 5

Answer 5

remember the ax^2 +bx +c

Answer 6

ax^2 -bx -c *
