Answer 3

lol, c'mon guys!
speed up!

Answer 4

\[\sqrt{5x}+29=x+3\]?

Answer 5

sqrt 5x = x - 26
5x = x^2 -52x + 676
0 = x^2 - 57x + 676
x = -40.17, -16.82

Answer 6

your did the squre root where did your +- go to =]

Answer 7

Should be 40.17, 16.82

Answer 8

square both sides and get 5x+9 = x^2+6x+9
Set equal to 0: x^2+x-20=0
Factor: (x+5)(x-4)=0
x=-5,x=4 Check both answers since squaring sometimes introduces an extraneous root.
-5 does not check so the answer is x = 4

Answer 9

hmm wolfram alpha doesn't have 16.82 for some reason

Answer 10

40.17 is on there

Answer 11

But you should get two answers though from quadratic equation.

Answer 12

wonder why because it should have 2 o well i'm guessing moneybird is correct
