$2 x^{2} + 10 x + 1 = 0$ $2x^2 + 10x + 1 = 0$

$2 x^{2} + 10 x = - 1$ $2x^2 + 10x =-1$

Recall;

$a x^{2} + b x + c = 0 \to Standard Form$ $ax^2 + bx + c = 0 -> "Standard Form"$

$2 x^{2} + 10 x = - 1$ $2x^2 + 10x =-1$

Adding $1$ $1$ to both sides;

$2 x^{2} + 10 x + 1 = - 1 + 1$ $2x^2 + 10x + 1 =-1 + 1$

$2 x^{2} + 10 x + 1 = 0 \to Standard Form$ $2x^2 + 10x + 1 = 0 -> "Standard Form"$
