Given (x - 1)² + 3 = 2x + 1 , find the value of the constant term a. 1 b. 3 c. -1 d. -3

Answer:

b. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard quadratic equation:

$ax {}^{2} + bx + c = 0$

Expand the equation

$(x - 1 {)}^{2} + 3 = 2x + 1 \\ {x}^{2} - 2x + 1 + 3 = 2x + 1 \\ transpose \\ {x}^{2} - 2x - 2x + 1 + 3 - 1 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} - 4x + 3 = 0$

constant 'c' = 3
