Huy is solving a quadratic equation by completing the square. His first few steps​ (steps 1-4) are shown below. Which of the following statements is true regarding​ Huy's work? Given x2+3x−5=0
Solution x2+3x=5 step 1
x2+3x+9=5+9 step 2
(x+3)2=14 step 3
x=−3±14−−√ step 4(1 point)

Huy is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 1 when he added a 5 to both sides. He should have only added a 5 to the left side of the equation.

Huy is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 4 when he solved the equation (x+3)2=14 for x.

Huy is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 2 of the solution when he added a 9 to both sides.

Huy is correct. He has done a nice job of completing the square.
