Question 220664: Is -4x squared = 0 a quadratic equation? I am supposed to solve each quadratic equation using any technique, name the technique, and check. But I do not think this is a quadratic equation because it is not written in a form of y = ax squared + bx + c. I think to solve x would equal 0. Am I right or do I totally not understand?

Question 220954: hi, i need help in solving an equation using the quadratic formula,
i know what the quadratic formula is but i don't know how to apply it to this particular question
the question is: 2x^2+7x = 1-2x^2
the fact that it isn't in the form x^2 + bx + c = 0 is making it hard for me solve,
at the moment i've got as far as changing the equation to 2x^2+7x - 1-2x^2=0
but i don't know whether thats right or wrong :S
thank you!
