Text Solution:

x2+10>110                x2>100x>100 or x<100x>10 or x<10          

Remember that when we unsquare a variable, there will be two possible answers, one negative and one positive. The only answer choice that works is -12.

Thus the correct answer consists of Choice C (-12).

Correct answer: C
