Question

Solve for x:
(x−7)2−25=0

Answer 1

Multiply 2x and 2*7

Answer 2

This is NOT any different from the last one. Please show your efforts.

Answer 3

NEGATIVE 7! Not seven xD

Answer 4

does it come out to (x-7)(x-7)

Answer 5

No. You just magically discarded the 25. Don't do that. 25 = 5^2. Factor the expression on the left-hand side.

Answer 6

I believe it should be \((x-7)^{2} - 25 = 0\)

Answer 7

i got x=12 or x=2

Answer 8

I'm confused? Did you mean what tkhunny wrote? becayse you wrote something diff in ur question xD

Answer 9

cuz if you meant the one with the little two. then yeah, you did it right xD

Answer 10

Please use ^ for an exponent. Don't make us guess.

x-squared would be "x^2"
