Question 199451: How can I covert any quadratic equations like 3(x^2-2x)=2x^2-8 or x^2-3x-40=48 into standard/general form (ax^2+bx+c=0)?I know there is four ways to
covert, the two ways I need help with are converting by subrtracting a number from both sides and other expand quadratic equation and collect like terms.
Can you give me two examples for each solution?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3(x^2-2x)=2x^2-8
3x^2-6x-2x^2+8=0
x^2-6x+8=0
x^2-3x-40=48
x^2-3x-40-48=0
x^2-3x-88=0
Nothing different than manipulating any other equation.
