Answer:

x = ±√10i (i outside the radical), or approximately ±3.62i, or no solution depending on your class.

Explanation:

x^2 + 10 = 0

x^2 = -10

x = ±√-10

x = ±√10i (i outside the radical), or approximately ±3.62i.

The solution is not real.

If you meant x^2 - 10 = 0 then x = ±√10 or approximately ±3.62. This solution is real.
