Which equation is a quadratic equation?
Answer
y + 3 = 5x + 10
y + 4x2 = (4x - 2)(x + 3)
y - 8x = (x2 + 1)(9x - 7)
y = 2x + 7x(x + 1)

it's not #3

?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
y - 8x = (x^2 + 1)(9x - 7)
y - 8x = 9x^3 - 7x^2 + 9x - 7
which is a cubic (and not a quadratic)

the equation with degree '2', when written in implicit form.

ohhh... so its #2
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
close, but again no
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
y + 4x^2 = (4x - 2)(x + 3)
y + 4x^2 = 4x^2 + 12x - 2x - 6
y = 4x^2 + 12x - 2x - 6 - 4x^2
y = 10x - 6 ... which is linear

confused... then it has to be the last one... cause im pretty sure the first one isnt a quadratic
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
you got it, you can either use the process of elimination, or you can do...
y = 2x + 7x(x + 1)
y = 2x + 7x^2 + 7x
y = 7x^2 + 9x
which is definitely a quadratic
