solve x^2-121=0

Question

solve x^2-121=0

anonymous · Answer

you have to factor this into
(x+something)(x-something)
figure out what that something is and voila

anonymous · Answer

so how do you think you can go about this?

anonymous · Answer

Try solving it first then tell me what answer you got.

anonymous · Answer

factor my foot
start with 
$$x^2=121$$ then think about what numbers you would square to get $121$

i did this because i'm trying to create an intuition for usual stuff since you don't always get pretty numbers like this ya feel

paki · Answer

solve like this..... (x)^2-(11)^2... then we have a formula.... 

A2 - B2 =  (A+B) • (A-B) 

 (x + 11) • (x - 11)  = 0 

and x+11=0      and x-11=0..... solve for "x" now..... @ashleychase1
