Write the quadratic equation in general form and then choose the value of "b."


(2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0

first of all to transfer (2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0 into a form where we can plug it into the quadratic formula we need to use the FOIL method.

(2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0
 becomes
2xx+2x6+-1x+-16
which simplifies to
2x^2 + 12x - x - 6
and then we add like terms to get
2x^2 + 11x - 6

now that it is in the correct form we can identify "a" "b" and "c" by following this form
ax^2 + bx + c
looking back at the equation we got earlier
2x^2 + 11x - 6

a=2,b=11,and c=-6
