Which of the following is not a quadratic equation?
(a) 3x−x2=x2+5
(b) (x+2)2=2(x2−5)
(c) (2x+3)2=2x2+6
(d) (x−1)2=3x2+x−2
The correct option is (c): (2x+3)2=2x2+6
(a) 3x−x2=x2+5
3x=2x2+5
2x2−3x+5=0, is a quadratic equation.
(b) (x+2)2=2(x2−5)
⇒x2+4+2x=2x2−10
⇒x2−2x−14=0, is a quadratic equation.
(c) (2x+3)2=2x2+6
⇒2x2+9+2×2x×3=2x2+6
⇒12x+3=0, which is not a quadratic equation.
(d) (x−1)2=3x2+x−2
⇒x2+1−2x=3x2+x−2
⇒2x2+3x−3=0, is a quadratic equation.
