    The answer is the last option (Option D), which is:

    D. 25

    The explanation is shown below:

    1. You have that:

    (a ± b) ^2=a^2 ± 2ab + b^2

    2. The expression given in the problem is:

    x^2-10x+n

    Where x^2=a and 2ab=10x

    2b=10

    b=10/2

    b=5

    3. Therefore, you have:

    b^2=5

    b^2=25

    b^2=n

    n=25
