AI explanation

For any quadratic equation in the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, the product of the roots is calculated using the formula c/a. In the given equation 6x^2 + 5x - 18 = 0, the coefficients are a = 6 and c = -18. Applying the formula, the product of the roots is -18 divided by 6, which equals -3.
