To evaluate what's incorrect in the given equation setup, I will extract the details from the image.

You are asked to convert the equation:

\[
8x^2 + y^2 + 9z^2 = 20 - 16x - 4y + 18z
\]

into the standard form of a quadratic surface:

\[
a(x - x_0)^2 + b(y - y_0)^2 + c(z - z_0)^2 = d
\]

Let's break it down step by step:

### 1. Rearrange the equation:
Move all terms to one side of the equation to set it equal to zero:

\[
8x^2 + y^2 + 9z^2 + 16x + 4y - 18z = 20
\]

### 2. Complete the square for each variable:

#### For \(x\):
Take the \(x\)-related terms \(8x^2 + 16x\). Factor out the coefficient of \(x^2\) from both terms:

\[
8(x^2 + 2x)
\]

To complete the square, take half of the linear term's coefficient (2), square it (1), and add it inside the parentheses. Then subtract the equivalent value outside to keep the equation balanced:

\[
8(x^2 + 2x + 1 - 1) = 8((x+1)^2 - 1) = 8(x+1)^2 - 8
\]

#### For \(y\):
Take the \(y\)-related terms \(y^2 + 4y\). Complete the square:

\[
(y^2 + 4y) = (y+2)^2 - 4
\]

#### For \(z\):
Take the \(z\)-related terms \(9z^2 - 18z\). Factor out the 9 and complete the square:

\[
9(z^2 - 2z) = 9((z-1)^2 - 1) = 9(z-1)^2 - 9
\]

### 3. Substitute the completed square expressions back into the equation:
\[
8(x+1)^2 - 8 + (y+2)^2 - 4 + 9(z-1)^2 - 9 = 20
\]

Simplify the constants:

\[
8(x+1)^2 + (y+2)^2 + 9(z-1)^2 = 20 + 8 + 4 + 9
\]

\[
8(x+1)^2 + (y+2)^2 + 9(z-1)^2 = 41
\]

### 4. Final equation:
\[
8(x+1)^2 + (y+2)^2 + 9(z-1)^2 = 41
\]

This is the standard form of the quadratic surface. However, it appears that in the solution presented in the image, some constants may be incorrectly placed or miscalculated (for example, shifting terms incorrectly or not factoring properly).

### Errors identified in the image:
1. It looks like the constant terms (e.g., \(41\)) in the image do not match the final constant after completing the square.
2. Some of the center coordinates in the image may be incorrect (for example, it should be \(x+1\), but the image may have \(x-1\)).
3. The \(z\)-term appears misaligned with the center value and the coefficient of 9.

Would you like me to assist further with any of the specific steps?
