Help :( math for 8th

She should add 10x to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 10x - 2 = 0   {Add 2 to both sides}

            +2 = +2

x² - 10x     = 2

Now to find what to add both sides, divide the co-efficient of x by 2

10/2 = 5

Add 5² to both sides

x² - 10x + 25 = 5²

(x - 5)² = 5²

Take square root both sides,

x - 5 = ± 5

x- 5 = 5   ;   x - 5 = -5

  x = 5+5 ;      x = -5 + 5

  x = 10    ;      x = 0

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.
