Question

Solve (x-4)^2=5 please helpppppp

Answer 1

Think of it more of like (x-4)(x-4)=5.

Answer 2

x^2-8x+16 = 5
x^2-8x+11 = 0

Answer 3

use quadratic formula or factor

Answer 4

@juliannescriv , in this case you dont need to use quadratic formula
its already in "completing the square" form, simply sqrt both sides

--> x-4 = sqrt5
--> x = 4 +- sqrt5

Answer 5

Thanks a lot so the answer is x=4+-sqrt5

Answer 6

yeah
