Question

Solve (x – 3)2 = 49. Select the values of x. A. –46 B. -4 C. 10 D. 52

Answer 1

To solve the equation (x – 3)² = 49, we need to find the values of x that satisfy this equation.

First, let's take the square root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent of 2.

√[(x – 3)²] = √49

This simplifies to:

x – 3 = ±7

Next, we can isolate x by adding 3 to both sides of the equation:

x = 3 ± 7

This gives us two possible values for x:

x = 3 + 7 = 10

and

x = 3 - 7 = -4

Therefore, the correct values of x that satisfy the equation (x – 3)² = 49 are B. -4 and C. 10.

Answer 2

Answer: If you are meaning for the number to be squared would be ten.

Explanation:

49 divided by 2 equals 7, 7 plus 3 =10

The answer would be C. 10
