Question

Solve for y
X=3+(y-5)^2

Answer 1

y = 5 + √-3 + x

y = 5 - √-3 + x

Explanation:

X=3+(y-5)^2

Let's simplify, and we will get

x = 3 + (y^2 -10y + 25)

x = 3 + y^2 - 10y + 25

x = y^2 - 10y + 28

0 = y^2 - 10y + 28 - x

We use the formula

-b ± √ b^2 -4(ac) / 2a

10 ± √(-10)^2 - 4 · (1 ( 28 - x) ) / 2

The answer will be

y = 5 + √-3 + x

y = 5 - √-3 + x
