Question 324090: ok so i was wondering in a quadratic equasion if a term is mssing what you replace it with.
for example 5x^2+5x=0
what do i putin the c term?
and 3x^2+3=0.
what do i put in the b term?
this needs to be solved using the quadratic method, so do i replace each term with 1 or 0?

If it's missing, then the coefficient is zero.
In your first example, a=5, b=5, c=0.
In your second example, a=1, b=0, c=3.
