P. 3
5x = 4y
Put this value of y in (ii), we have
2
40x + 5x = 20 + 10x
2
45x = 20 +10x
2
10x - 45x + 20 = 0
2
2x - 9x + 4 = 0
Which is the required equation.
Example 2 : Check whether the following are quadratic equations.

(i) x - 4x - x + 1 = (x - 2)

2
Ans: x - 4x - x + 1 = x - 8 - 6x + 12 x
2
2
-4x + 6x - x - 12x + 1 + 8 = 0
2
2x - 11x + 9 = 0
Since, the degree of the equation is 2, therefore, it is a quadratic
equation.
(ii) (x + 2)(2x - 3) = 2(x - 2)(x + 5)
Ans: (x + 2)(2x - 3) = 2(x - 2)(x + 5)
2
2
2x + x - 6 = 2(x + 3x - 10)
x - 6 = 6x - 20
5x - 14 = 0
Degree of equation is 1.So, it is not a quadratic equation.
(iii)
Ans:
Squaring both sides
2
2
9x - 5 = 4x
2
2
9x - 4x = 5
2
5x = 5
2
5x - 5 = 0
Since, the degree of the equation is 2, therefore, it is a quadratic
equation.
Example 3 : Represent in the form of the quadratic equation
(x - 3)(2x + 1) = x(x + 5)
