(2p+5)^2=32 ???
solve each equation by using the square root property. write all radicals in simplest form.
Find the square root of both sides
2p + 5 = +/-
Factor inside the radical to reveal a perfect square
2p + 5 = +/-
Extract the square root of 16
2p + 5 = +/-
2p = -5 +/-
Two solutions
p =
and
p =
