eliminate the fraction first \[\huge \sqrt({5}-1)2 = x*\sqrt {5}\]\[\huge 2\sqrt{5}-2 = x(\sqrt{5})\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then isolate the x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would it be B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you would have \[\huge \frac{ 2\sqrt{5}-2 }{ \sqrt{5} } \] then you need to rationalize the denominator to eliminate the sqrt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

show me please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\huge \frac{ 2\sqrt{5}-2 }{ \sqrt{5} } *\frac{ \sqrt{5} }{ \sqrt{5} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
