Ok, so this is actually very simple. All you have to do is get a calculator out and find the square root of 17, 26, 64, and 27. The answers you get equal x. In that case whichever answer is greater is the correct answer. (If that's confusing let me know and I will change it up)

Oh wait. Nope I am wrong. You do that only for the 1st 2 equations.
