Question

Compare the given equation with $a{y}^2+by+c=0$ and select correct values of $a,b$ and $c$.

$x-\frac{6}{x}=5$

• A. $a=1,b=5,c=-6$
• B. $a=1,b=6,c=-5$
• C. $a=1,b=-5,c=-6$
• D. $a=1,b=-6,c=5$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$a=1,b=-5,c=-6$

Comparing the equation $x-\frac{6}{x}=5$ or $x^2-5x-6=0$

with $a{x}^2+bx+c=0$

then, $a=1,b=-5andc=-6$
