Question

What is the solution to the equation square root 5X -7 equals square root 3X +5

Answer 1

x = 6

Explanation:

We assume your entire expressions are under the radical. The first step can be to square both sides of the equation:

√(5x -7) = √(3x +5)

5x -7 = 3x +5 . . . . . . . square both sides

2x = 12 . . . . . . . . . . . add 7-3x

x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The solution is x=6.
