Answer:

A quadratic equation is an equation that has the following general form:


ax^2+bx+c=0.

Any equation that can be rewritten in the above form can be considered a quadratic equation, the important part is that there is a term that includes an


x^2,

and that 2 is the greatest exponent of any variable of the equation.
