Answer:
4x² - 5x - 8 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard form of a quadratic: ax² + bx + c
Move all terms to one side and sort them based on the level of degree:
[tex]4x^2-9x-8=-4x\\4x^2-9x+4x-8=0\\4x^2-5x-8=0[/tex]
4x^2 -5x-8 =0
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is the standard form
4x^2 -9x-8 =-4x
Add 4x to each side
4x^2 -9x+4x-8 =-4x+4x
