Question

Transform each of the following into a quadratic equantion in the form ax +bx + c = 0

x(x+5)=2

Answer 1

x² + 5x - 2 = 0

Explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0 (a ≠ 0 )

Given

x(x + 5) = 2 ← distribute left side

x² + 5x = 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x² + 5x - 2 = 0 ← in standard form
