Answer:

B. -8 and 8

Explanation:

To solve this equation, we need to get x by itself. To do this, perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind everything must be done to both sides of the equation.

x^2=64

x is being squared. The opposite of being squared is taking the square root. Take the square root of both sides.

√x^2=√64

The exponent and square root on the left will cancel, and x will be left by itself.

x=√64

x=±8

The solutions of the equation are x=8 and x= -8

Therefore, the answer is B. -8, 8
