The other solution of the quadratic equation is x = 4.

How to get the other solution of the equation?

The quadratic equation is:

x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0

We know that one solution is x = 2, and the other solution is x = k.

Then the factorization is:

(x - 2)(x - k) = x^2 - 6x + 8

Expanding the left side, we get:

x^2 + 2k - (2 + k)x = 0

Then we have:

2k = 8

(2 + k) = 6

By soling any of these two we get:

k = 8/2 = 6 - 2 = 4

The correct option is the third one.
