Check whether the following are quadratic equations:(x − 2) (x + 1) = (x − 1) (x + 3) |
Answer» Given; (x − 2) (x + 1) = (x − 1) (x + 3) ⇒ x2 + x − 2x − 2 = x2 + 3x − x − 3 ⇒ x2 − x − 2 − x2 − 2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ −3x + 1 = 0 ∵ The highest power of x in the equation is 1; ∴ It is not a quadratic equation. |
