Given the equation:


x=y^2

Solving for y:


y=√(x)

If we are given the values of y, we use the first equation, otherwise, we use the second equation.

We are required to find the values of y for x ={0, 16, 100} and the values of x for:


y={}\lbrace√(5),-2√(2)\rbrace

Calculate the values of y:

x = 0


y=√(0)=0

x = 16


y=√(16)=4

x = 100


y=√(100)=10

Now calculate the values of x.


x=(√(5))^2=5

Finally:


\begin{gathered} x=(-2√(2))^2 \\ \\ x=(-2)^2(√(2))^2 \\ \\ x=4\cdot2=8 \end{gathered}

The table with the completed values is shown below:
