Answer:

The positive solution to x is;


(3)/(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;


x^2=(9)/(4)

We want to solve for x;

Firstly, let's square root both sides of the equation;


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{x^2}=\sqrt[]{(9)/(4)} \\ x=\pm\sqrt[]{(3^2)/(2^2)}=\pm\sqrt[]{((3)/(2))^2} \\ x=\pm(3)/(2) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the positive solution to x is;


(3)/(2)
