Explanation:

This equations are quadratic equations, which is on standard form,


{ax}^(2) + bx + c

where a is the leading coefficient, b is the second coefficient, and c is the constant.

Both a and b are in quadratic equation so we need to find the constant separately.

Both sides are equal to zero so we can just subtract the terms not containing a or b in them to the opposite side.


{x}^(2) - 4 x + a = 0


{x}^(2) + a = 4x


a = - {x}^(2) + 4x

For b,


2 {x}^(2) - 6x + b + 7 = 0


- 6x + b + 7 = - 2 {x}^(2)


b + 7 = - 2 {x}^(2) + 6x


b = - 2 {x}^(2) + 6x - 7
