How do you solve for x in the equation involving both factors and quadratic expressions: (2x^2 - 4x + 3) = (x - 1)(x^2 + 3x - 2)?

To solve for x in the equation (2x^2 – 4x + 3) = (x – 1)(x^2 + 3x – 2), first expand the right-hand side: (x – 1)(x^2 + 3x – 2). Then, equate the expanded form to the left-hand side. Combine like terms to form a single quadratic equation. Finally, solve the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula or factoring, if possible.
