Question

HELP PLEASE

Find the solution set.
(x - 11)(x - 11) = 0

Answer 1

The answer is 11

Because you have to add 11 on both sides to get x by itself!

Answer 2

x = 11

Explanation:

You are solving for the solution of the variable given (x). Set each parenthesis equal to 0 and simplify:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 11 to both sides:

x - 11 = 0

x - 11 (+11) = 0 (+11)

x = 0 + 11

x = 11

Do the same for the other set:

x - 11 = 0

x - 11 (+11) = 0 (+11)

x = 0 + 11

x = 11
