Which of the following are quadratic equations?

$(x\ +\ 2)^3\ =\ x^3\ –\ 4$


Given:

Given equation is $(x\ +\ 2)^3\ =\ x^3\ –\ 4$.


To do:


We have to check whether the given equation is quadratic.


Solution:


The standard form of a quadratic equation is $ax^2+bx+c=0$.


$(x\ +\ 2)^3\ =\ x^3\ –\ 4$


$x^3+8+3(x)(2)(x+2)=x^3-4$  


$8+6x^2+12x=-4$


$6x^2+12x+12=0$


$6x^2+12x+12=0$ is of the form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ where $a=6, b=12$ and $c=12$.

Therefore, $(x\ +\ 2)^3\ =\ x^3\ –\ 4$ is a quadratic equation.
