Question

Help, medal + fan! Solve for x please

Answer 1

\[\Large \sqrt{x-2}=\frac{7}{4}-x\]

Answer 2

need help? :)

Answer 3

We got to square both sides first :P

Answer 4

lol why did i even ask that question..... O.o

Answer 5

So @kainui square both sides first, and then set it equal to 0. And you just solve the equation for x.

Answer 6

okay i did the math (which was nothing) and im lost sorry i can't help i tried tho sorry loks like the great smartone is helping you lol

Answer 7

Noob, start off by squaring both sides \[x-2 = (7/4-x)^2\] eliminating the the squarer root, and then afterwards you can expand and move terms all to one side. \[x-2=\frac{ 49 }{ 16 }-\frac{ 7 x}{ 2 }+x^2 \implies x-2-\frac{ 49 }{ 16 }+\frac{ 7x }{ 2 }-x^2=0\] note you can simplify a bit more and then you can factor using the quadratic formula if you wish.

Answer 8

\(\Large \sqrt{x-2}=\frac{7}{4}-x\)

\(\Large \left(\sqrt{x-2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{7}{4}-x\right)^2\)

Answer 9

Show me the answer I'm still so stuck...

Answer 10

@Kainui Heard of the CoC though (;

Answer 11

@TheSmartOne no one really follows the CoC anymore....lol

Answer 12

Next step
\(\Large x-2=\left(\frac{7}{4}-x\right)^2\)

Answer 13

not saying i don't im just saying i noticed that people doesnt really care about the CoC anymore

Answer 14

I think that the equation has no solutions, since the unique root is x=9/4, which is not acceptable

Answer 15

since the subsequent conditions have to be checked:
\[\begin{gathered}
7 - 4x > 0 \hfill \\
x - 2 \geqslant 0 \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]

Answer 16

Next step :P
\(\Large x-2= \frac{49}{16}-\frac{7}{2}x+x^2\)

Answer 17

Right, \[(x-9/4)(x-9/4)\] it has no solutions

Answer 18

Set it equal to 0.

And you get the picture.

Answer 19

:O i knew it :( no fair lol (didnt really know) i lost my shot of helping a moderator this sux :(
