Solution

a) Given that, 2(x1)2=4x22x+1
2(x2+12x)=4x22x+1
2x2+24x=4x22x+1
2x2+2x1=0
Which represents a quadratic equation because it has the quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0,a0
b) Given that, 2xx2=x2+5
2x22x+5=0
Which represents a quadratic equation because I has the quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0, a 0
c) Given that, (2x+3)2=3x25x
2x2+36+x=3x25x
x2(5+26)x3=0
Which also represents a quadratic equation because it has the quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0, a 0
d) Given that, (x2+2x)2=x4+3+4x2
x4+4x2+4x3=x4+3+4x2
4x33=0
Which is not of the form ax2+bx+c=0, a 0. Thus, the equation is not quadratic. This is a cubic equation.
