do i square each individual one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=-8 or x=7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9x+81= x^2 + 10x +25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^2+x-56=0 (x+8)(x-7)=0 x=-8,7 now plug in those number into original equation to see if it works out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sqrt9x+81 = x+5 by squaring both sides 9x+81=x^2+10x+25 9x-10x+81-25=x^2 -x+56=x^2 x^2+x-56=0 x^2+8x-7x-56=0 x(x+8)-7(x+8)=0 (x+8)(x-7)=0 x+8=0 or x-7=0 x=-8 or x=7
