Solution:I. 8k - 3 = 12 (linear equation)II. x² - 5x + 3 = 0 (quadratic equation)III. 9r² - 25 = 0 (quadratic equation)IV. (2x + 5)(x - 1) = -6 2x² - 2x + 5x - 5 + 6 = 0 2x² + 3x + 1 = 0 (quadratic equation)Equations under II, III, and IV are examples quadratic equation because of the degree of exponents that is higher than 1. While equation 1 is considered as a linear equation because of having a degree of exponent of 1.#CarryOnLearning
