Solve the equation.

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

\[\sqrt{7-x}=x-5\]

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

do i square both sides again

hartnn (hartnn):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes and then factor and find the solutions

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

so when squaring x-5 it is x^2-25 or no

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

and then I have to get everything on one side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes and then factor

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

so then the equation before factoring is \[x^{2}-x-32\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, then factor

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

\[\frac{ 3 }{ 10 }-\frac{ 3 }{ 5 }i\]

OpenStudy (nsh4267):

that is the answer in the back of the book but I dont get it
