Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x^2+8x+7=0}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to put the equation into the standard form of a quadratic equation ([tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]). This allows us to factor or use the quadratic formula to find the roots.
We are given the equation:
[tex]x^2+8x+10=3[/tex]
We have to get a 0 on one side of the equation. The easiest way to do this is to "get rid" of the 3 on the right side using inverse operations.
It's a positive 3, so the inverse would be subtract. Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.
[tex]x^2+8x+10-3=3-3[/tex]
[tex]x^2+8x+(10-3)=0[/tex]
[tex]x^2+8x+7=0[/tex]
The equation in standard form is x²+8x+7=0
