       2              2      
x + 2*x  - 4 = 8 + 3*x  - 7*x
$$2 x^{2} + x - 4 = 3 x^{2} - 7 x + 8$$
Detail solution
Move right part of the equation to
left part with negative sign.

The equation is transformed from
$$2 x^{2} + x - 4 = 3 x^{2} - 7 x + 8$$
to
$$\left(- 3 x^{2} + 7 x - 8\right) + \left(2 x^{2} + x - 4\right) = 0$$
This equation is of the form
$$a\ x^2 + b\ x + c = 0$$
A quadratic equation can be solved using the discriminant
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where $D = b^2 - 4 a c$ is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = -1$$
$$b = 8$$
$$c = -12$$
, then
$$D = b^2 - 4\ a\ c = $$
$$\left(-1\right) \left(\left(-1\right) 4\right) \left(-12\right) + 8^{2} = 16$$
Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
$$x_1 = \frac{(-b + \sqrt{D})}{2 a}$$
$$x_2 = \frac{(-b - \sqrt{D})}{2 a}$$
or
$$x_{1} = 2$$
Simplify
$$x_{2} = 6$$

Vieta's Theorem
rewrite the equation
$$2 x^{2} + x - 4 = 3 x^{2} - 7 x + 8$$
of
$$a x^{2} + b x + c = 0$$
as reduced quadratic equation
$$x^{2} + \frac{b x}{a} + \frac{c}{a} = 0$$
$$x^{2} - 8 x + 12 = 0$$
$$p x + x^{2} + q = 0$$
where
$$p = \frac{b}{a}$$
$$p = -8$$
$$q = \frac{c}{a}$$
$$q = 12$$
Vieta Formulas
$$x_{1} + x_{2} = - p$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} = q$$
$$x_{1} + x_{2} = 8$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} = 12$$
