Solution

a) Given that. $x^{2} + 2 x + 1 = (4 - x) 2 + 3$
$\Rightarrow x^{2} + 2 x + 1 = 16 + x^{2} - 8 x + 3$
$\Rightarrow 10 x - 18 = 0$
Which is not of the form ax2 + bx + c a $\neq$ 0. Thus the equation is not a quadratic equation.
b) Given that. $- 2 x^{2} = (5 - x) (2 x - \frac{2}{5})$
$\Rightarrow - 2 x^{2} = 10 x - 2 x^{2} - 2 + \frac{2 x}{5}$
$\Rightarrow 50 x + 2 x - 10 = 0$
$\Rightarrow 52 x - 10 = 0$
Which is also not a quadratic equation
c) Given that. $(k + 1) x^{2} + \frac{3}{2} x = 7, w h e r e k - = - 1$
$k = - 1$
$\Rightarrow x^{2} (- 1 + 1) \frac{3}{2} + x = 7$
$\Rightarrow 3 x - 14 = 0$
Which is also not a quadratic equation.
d) Given that. $x^{3} - x^{2} = (x - 1)^{3}$
$x^{3} - x^{2} = x^{3} - 3 x^{2} (1) + 3 x (1)^{2} - (1)^{3}$
$[∴ (a - b)^{3} = a^{3} - b^{3} + 3 a b^{2} - 3 a^{2} b]$
$x^{3} + 3 x^{2} - 3 x + 1 = 0$
$2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1 = 0$
Which represents a quadratic equation because it has the quadratic form
$a x^{2} + b x + c = a \neq 0$
