Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 4x + 10 = 0

subtract 10 from both sides

x² - 4x = - 10

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 = - 10 + 4

(x - 2)² = - 6

To complete the square add 4

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Her score in the first game was 173.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sue's total score for the 3 games = 3*162 = 486 points.

Let her score in the first game be x points. Then in the second game she scored (x - 10)  and in the third, ( x - 10 - 13) points:

x + (x - 10) + (x - 23) = 486

3x - 33 = 486

3x = 519

x = 173 (answer).
