Consider the polynomial 9x2 – 16. what is the value of ac? what is the value of b? what two numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b? the factored form of 9x2 – 16 is

The value of ac is -144, the value of a is 9, the value of b is 0, and the value of c is -16 and this can be determined by comparing the generalized quadratic equation with the given quadratic equation.

Given :

Polynomial  ---    --- (1)

The generalized quadratic polynomial equation is given by:

  --- (2)

Comparing equation (1) with equation (2) in order to get the value of 'a' and 'c'.

a = 9

c = -16

So, the value of the product of 'ac' is:

ac = -144

The value of b is 0 and this is determined by comparing equation (1) and equation (2).

Now, factorize the equation (1).
