x^2 - 10x + 8 =0
x^2 - 10 + (-10/2)^2 - (-10/2)^2 + 8 = 0
(x - 5)^2 - 25 + 8 = 0
(x - 5)^2 - 17 = 0
To be honest , this is the final step for this equation. It seems like there is no any suitable answer for this question..
To me , I think the best answer will be the third option.
x - 5 =0
x = 5

2x-10 = 0
2x = 10
x = 5
I guess this answer seems like legit.. So I will choose the third option.
