Question

√ (5x + 5) = x

Answer 1

what would you like to do with this equation?

Answer 2

Find the solution. I can't seem to get it.

Answer 3

square both sides to get\[4x + 5 = x ^{2}\] then minus -4x on both sides
then minus 5 on both sides to get \[x ^{2} - 4x - 5 = 0\] can you solve from there?

ok, then you factor so it becomes (x-5)(x+1)=0
