The graph of the relation y = x2 + 2x + k passes through the…

The graph of the relation y = x2 + 2x + k passes through the point (2, 0). Find the values of k
  • A.
    zero
  • B.
    -2
  • C.
    -4
  • D.
    -8
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

y = x2 + 2x + k at point(2,0) x = 2, y = 0
0 = (2)2 + 2(20 + k)
0 = 4 + 4 + k
0 = 8 + k
k = -8
