Question

Solve the equation. Check both solutions and only write the real solution.

the square root of 6m minus 5 = m
A. {1}
B. {5}
C. {1, 5}
D. no real solution

Answer 1

\[\sqrt{6m-5=m}\]

Answer 2

\[\sqrt{6m-5}=m\] you mean

Answer 3

Since it gives us the answers, let's guess and check!

\[\sqrt{6(1)-5}=\sqrt{1}=1\]\[\sqrt{6(5)-5}=\sqrt{25}=5\]
So it is both [1,5]

Answer 4

\[\sqrt{6m-5=m}\]......\[\sqrt{5m=5}\]....\[\sqrt{1}=1\]\[\sqrt{25}=5\]....both 1 and 5
