Question

Find the exact solution for

(√(5) - 1)/(x) = (√(5))/(2)

Then, find the approximate solution.

Answer 1

(√(5) - 1)/(x) = (√(5))/(2)
√(5) - 1 = (√(5))/(2) x
√(5) - 1 = (√(5))/(2) x
√(5) = (√(5))/(2) x + 1
√(5) - (√(5))/(2) = x + 1
(√(5))/(2) = x + 1
x = (√(5))/(2) - 1

Answer 2

Thank you so much :)
