Answer:

2(x-1)^{2}=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The options of the question are</em></u>

2(x − 1)2 = 4

2(x − 1)2 = −4

2(x − 2)2 = 4

2(x − 2)2 = −4

we have

2x^{2} -4x-2=0

This is a vertical parabola open upward

The vertex represent the minimum value

The quadratic equation in vertex form is

y=a(x-h)^2+k

where

a is a coefficient

(h,k) is the vertex

so

Convert the quadratic equation in vertex form

Factor 2 leading coefficient

2(x^{2} -2x)-2=0

Complete the squares

2(x^{2} -2x+1)-2-2=0

2(x^{2} -2x+1)-4=0

Rewrite as perfect squares

2(x-1)^{2}-4=0

The vertex is the point (1,-4)

Move the constant to the right side

2(x-1)^{2}=4

X=2
2x-3=-x+3

add three to both sides
add 1x to each side
should be left with 3x=6
divide both sides by 3 to get x alone
your answer then is x=2
