0=3a\left(-4\right)+2b\left(-2\right)+c
Calculate 2 to the power of 2 and get 4.
0=-12a+2b\left(-2\right)+c
Multiply 3 and -4 to get -12.
0=-12a-4b+c
Multiply 2 and -2 to get -4.
-12a-4b+c=0
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-12a+c=4b
Add 4b to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
-12a=4b-c
Subtract c from both sides.
\frac{-12a}{-12}=\frac{4b-c}{-12}
Divide both sides by -12.
a=\frac{4b-c}{-12}
Dividing by -12 undoes the multiplication by -12.
a=\frac{c}{12}-\frac{b}{3}
Divide 4b-c by -12.
0=3a\left(-4\right)+2b\left(-2\right)+c
Calculate 2 to the power of 2 and get 4.
0=-12a+2b\left(-2\right)+c
Multiply 3 and -4 to get -12.
0=-12a-4b+c
Multiply 2 and -2 to get -4.
-12a-4b+c=0
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-4b+c=12a
Add 12a to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
-4b=12a-c
Subtract c from both sides.
\frac{-4b}{-4}=\frac{12a-c}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
b=\frac{12a-c}{-4}
Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.
b=\frac{c}{4}-3a
Divide 12a-c by -4.
