Question

Which Of the following is the real result of the equation below after completing the square and factoring?
x^2 - 4x + 2 = 10

A.) (x-2)^2 = 12
B.) (x-2)^2 = 14
C.) (x+2)^2 = 14
D.) (x+2)^2 = 8

Please HELP!

Answer 1

\[x ^{2} - 4x + 2 =10\]
by completing the square:
\[x ^{2} - 4x + 4 = 10 -2 + 4\]
\[x ^{2} - 4x + 4 = 12\]
\[(x - 2)^{2} = 12\]
