Question

Is the given equation a quadratic equation? Explain. x(x−6)=−5

The equation is not a quadratic equation because there is no x2-term.

The equation is a quadratic equation because there is an x2-term.

The equation is not a quadratic equation because the expression is not equal to zero.

The equation is not a quadratic equation because there is a term with degree higher than 2.

I think the answer is A but im not sure.

Answer 1

The equation is a quadratic equation because there is an x2-term.

Explanation:

x(x−6)=−5

Distribute

x^2 -6x = -5

The equation is a quadratic equation because there is an x^2-term.

Answer 2

Your required answer is option A.

Explanation:

Here,

The given equation is;

x(x-6)=-5

now,

while finding x.

either or,

x=-5 (x-6)=-5

x= 1 (shifting-6 in next side)

now, the value of x is -5,1.

so, it's a quadratic equation.

( in quadratic equation the variable always has two values after solution)

Hope it helps..
