Question

Which quadratic equation is equivalent to (x-4)² – (x − 4) − 6 = 0?

Answer 1

The quadratic equation u² - u - 6 = 0 where u = (x -4) is equivalent to (x-4)² – (x − 4) − 6 = 0 option (D) is correct.

What is a quadratic equation?

Any equation of the form $\rm ax^2+bx+c=0$ where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called a quadratic equation.

As we know, the formula for the roots of the quadratic equation is given by:

$\rm x = \dfrac{-b \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

We have a quadratic equation:

(x-4)² – (x − 4) − 6 = 0

Let (x - 4) = u

u² - u - 6 = 0

Thus, the quadratic equation u² - u - 6 = 0 where u = (x -4) is equivalent to (x-4)² – (x − 4) − 6 = 0 option (D) is correct.
