I believe the answer is B, but I'm not 100% sure. :)
Take the sqrt of both sides of <span>(x+2)^2=10:
x+2 = plus or minus sqrt(10)
Solve for x: x = -2 plus or minus sqrt(10)
Evaluate x: x = -2 + sqrt(10) AND x = -2 - sqrt(10) (answers)

Answer:
y = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Direct variation means y will change by the same factor x does. When x changes by a factor of 15/10 = 1.5, the value of y will change by that same factor
x = 10, y = 12
x= 15, y = 1.5×12 = 18
The new value of y is y = 18.
_____
Written as a proportion, you have ...
y/15 = 12/10
y = 15×12/10 = 18
__
Written as a direct variation equation, you have ...
y = kx
12 = k·10 ⇒ k = 1.2
y = 1.2·15 = 18 . . . . for x=15
We have to check which of PEMDAS rules can be applied in this case. We have only ADDITION. In this case we can observe that addition is:
1. Associative

2. Commutative

3. has Additive property
