Answer: OPTION C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation [tex]x^2 - 7x + 10[/tex] and the value of the variable "x" [tex]x = -2[/tex], you need to substitute the given value of the variable. Then:

[tex]=(-2)^2 - 7(-2) + 10[/tex]

And finally, you need to evaluate.

Remember the multiplication of signs:

[tex](+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-[/tex]

Therefore, you get the following result:

[tex]=4+14 + 10[/tex]

[tex]=28[/tex]

This matches with the option C.
