Question

enter the correct value so that each expression is a perfect-square trinomial.

(x^2 - 10x + \text{ })

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the coefficient of the linear term

The coefficient of the linear term \(x\) is \(-10\).

Step2: Divide the coefficient by two

$$\frac{-10}{2} = -5$$

Step3: Square the resulting value

$$(-5)^2 = 25$$

Answer:

25
