Question

According to the Square Root property of Equations, the solution set of x2 = 25 is {±5}.

Answer 1

Justify "x2 = 25 is {±5}"

First, please write x^2, not x2.

x^2 = 25; solve for x. Take the sqrt of both sides. Must write "plus or minus " in front of the sqrt of 25:

x^2 = 25 becomes x = plus or minus 5, so x: {-5, 5}
