sounds like a headache, why not just factor it and set terms equal to zero
OpenStudy (e.cociuba):
Wouldn't there be 2 answers here 5 and -5?
OpenStudy (stamp):
\[5x^2-125=0\]\[5(x^2-25)=0\]\[5(x+5)(x-5)=0\] Identify and solve (x + 5) = 0 (x - 5) = 0 x = +/- 5 ps you are not funny either
OpenStudy (e.cociuba):
Its C.)
OpenStudy (stamp):
@e.cociuba The answer choice includes a +/- sign, so +/- 5 = +5, -5
