Question

Solve the following equation ​

Answer 1

x=1 x=-11

Explanation:

first you need to find what two numbers add together to make 10x and multiply together to make 25-

this would be 5

so we can rewrite it as (x+5)(x+5) = 36

which is the same thing as (x+5)^2 =36

then taking the root of both sides we get (x+5)= plus or minus 6

so x=-11 or x equals 1
