Both (a) and (b)
Introduction -
An equation containing a second-degree polynomial is called a quadratic equation. For example, equations such as x2+2 x-8=0, x2-5 x+6=0 are quadratic equations.
Thus, the standard form of a Quadratic Equation of variable x is ; where a, b, c all are real numbers but a ≠ 0.
Here ‘a’ and ‘b’ are called coefficients of x2 and x respectively. ‘c’ is called a constant term.
