Write in Standard Form x^2-8x+10=-4

$x^{2} - 8 x + 10 = - 4$

Step 1

Add $4$ to both sides of the equation.

$x^{2} - 8 x + 10 + 4 = 0$

Step 2

Add $10$ and $4$ .

$x^{2} - 8 x + 14 = 0$

Step 3

To write a polynomial in standard form, simplify and then arrange the terms in descending order.

$a x^{2} + b x + c = 0$

Step 4

The standard form is $x^{2} - 8 x + 14$ .

$x^{2} - 8 x + 14 = 0$

Step 5
