Question

what is the value of x in the equation √3
+x-5 = -2

Answer 1

\[\sqrt 3+x-5 = -2 \rightarrow \sqrt 3+x = 5-2 \rightarrow \sqrt 3+x = 3\]
\[\rightarrow x = 3 -\sqrt 3 = 3- 1.732 =1.268\]

Answer 3

Pls check your question again and then post

Answer 4

Is your question written like
\[\sqrt{3+x} -5=-2\]

Answer 5

radical 3 +5 -5 = -2

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

Ok

Answer 8

\[\sqrt{3+x} -5=-2 \rightarrow \sqrt{3+x} =5-2 \rightarrow \sqrt{3+x} =3\]
Squaring both sides we find
\[( \sqrt{3+x})^2 =(3)^2 \rightarrow 3+x = 9 \rightarrow x= 9-3 \rightarrow x= 6\]
Hence x=6 is the required answer.
