\([x^2]=x^2+1\)

\(([x])^2-[x^2]=x^2+2x+1-x^2-1=2x\)

Plugin in value of x
Let x=2
representing x bar with=Ẍ =x+1
\((Ẍ)^2\)-{\((x)^2\)}- this part the one in the curly bracket the value of x has to be first squared and then represented in Ẍ form(\((2)^2\)+1)
\((2+1)^2\)-(4+1)
\((3)^2\)-(5)=4
9-5=4
now put x=2 in the given answer choices only 2x=4 answer D.
