Write in Standard Form -17-8x^2=4x-3x^2

$- 17 - 8 x^{2} = 4 x - 3 x^{2}$

Move all the expressions to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $4 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$- 17 - 8 x^{2} - 4 x = - 3 x^{2}$

Add $3 x^{2}$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 17 - 8 x^{2} - 4 x + 3 x^{2} = 0$

Add $- 8 x^{2}$ and $3 x^{2}$ .

$- 17 - 5 x^{2} - 4 x = 0$

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

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

Move $- 17$ .

$- 5 x^{2} - 4 x - 17 = 0$
