Check whether the following are quadratic equation.(x - 2) (x + 1) = (x- 1) (x + 3)

Answer»

Given: (x – 2) (x + 1) = (x – 1) (x + 3) 

⇒ x (x + 1) – 2 (x +1) 

= x (x + 3) – 1 (x + 3) 

Note : Compare the coefficients of x2 on both sides. If they are equal it is not a Q.E. 

⇒ x2 + x – 2x – 2 = x2 + 3x – x -3

⇒ x2 – x – 2 = x2 + 2x – 3 

⇒ 3x – 1 = 0 is not a Q.E.
