Given (x - 7)2 = 36, select the values of x.

Solution:
Given equation is
(x - 7)2 = 36,
We can write 36 as 62
(x - 7)2 = 62
Applying square root on both sides
x - 7 = ±6
x = 6 + 7 , -6 + 7
x = 13, 1
Therefore, the values of x are 13 and 1.
Given (x - 7)2 = 36, select the values of x.

Summary:
Given (x - 7)2 = 36, the values of x are 13, 1.
