Answer 5

what do u mean? @Isaiah.Feynman

Answer 6

Is the square root covering the x alone?

Answer 7

no it isnt its covering x-5

Answer 8

√x=5+4

Add 4 to 5 to get 9.

√x=9

To remove the radical on the left-hand side of the equation, square both sides of the equation.

(√x)2=(9)2

Simplify the left-hand side of the equation.

x=(9)2
