Step 1.1

Add $4 x$ to both sides of the equation.

$2 x^{2} - 3 + 4 x = - 1$

Step 1.2

Add $1$ to both sides of the equation.

$2 x^{2} - 3 + 4 x + 1 = 0$

Step 2

Add $- 3$ and $1$ .

$2 x^{2} + 4 x - 2 = 0$

Step 3

To write a polynomial in standard form, simplify and then arrange the terms in descending order.

$a x^{2} + b x + c = 0$

Step 4

The standard form is $2 x^{2} + 4 x - 2$ .

$2 x^{2} + 4 x - 2 = 0$
