Solve the equation by taking square roots. x^2-2=17

OpenStudy (turingtest):

what was the answer to your last question?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

you are opening and closing questions so quickly...

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

add 2 to both sides then take square roots of both sides (don't forget the negative square root)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer to my last question was n^2=6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I take the square root of both sides if the number on the right is 19?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry about that TuringTest

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are asking the similar questions =.=" Trying to understand the solving properties.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the number might not be nice. So, you should give the exact numbers

OpenStudy (radar):

19 has square roots. They may be irrational, but they are there.

OpenStudy (radar):

or you could leave the expression with\[\pm \sqrt{19}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay, I think I'll leave it like what radar said
