Which equation is related to square root of x plus 10 end root minus 1 is equal to x ?

Answer
A
x plus 10 is equal to x squared minus 1
B
x plus 10 is equal to x squared plus 1
C
x plus 10 is equal to x squared plus 2 x plus 1
D
x plus 10 is equal to x squared plus x plus 1

Explanation

Add 1 to both sides of √(x + 10) − 1 = x to get √(x + 10) = x + 1. Squaring both sides gives x + 10 = (x + 1)² = x² + 2x + 1, which is choice C, “x + 10 is equal to x² + 2x + 1.”
