Step-by-Step Solution

Here we have a quadratic equation.

A quadratic equation is always constructed like this:

 

y=ax2+bx+c y = ax²+bx+c

 

Where a, b, and c are generally already known to us, and the X and Y points need to be discovered.

Firstly, it seems that in this formula we do not have the C,

Therefore, we understand it is equal to 0.

c=0 c = 0

 

a is the coefficient of X², here it does not have a coefficient, therefore

a=1 a = 1

 

b=10 b= 10

is the number that comes before the X that is not squared.

 

Answer

a=1,b=10,c=0 a=1,b=10,c=0
