Let us find the value of x


f(x)=x^2-1

Since f(x) = 99, so substitute f(x) by 99 in the formula above


99=x^2-1

To solve the equation add 1 to both sides


99+1=x^2-1+1
100=x^2

To get x take a square root for both sides


\pm√(100)\text{ = x}

So the values of x are -10 , 10

For the square root there are to values one of them positive and the other is negative because -10 * -10 = 100 and
