Doing the square root \(\sqrt{number}\)
dude:
So...
\((p+6)^2=25\)
Square root on \(\mathbb {both~sides}\)
\(\sqrt{(p+6)^2}=\sqrt{25}\)
Can you solve this?
slipknot3066:
..no
Pixel:
I can(solve that)
(P+6) = 5
dude:
SInce powers and roots are opposites they cancel out
\(\color{red}{\sqrt{}\color{black}{p+6}\color{red}{{^2}}}=\sqrt{25}\\
p+6=\sqrt{25}\)
What is the \(\sqrt {25}\)
