Question 155287: Alright here is a tough one that I have been trying for an hour and can't seem to figure out.
(x-6)^2+(51-x)^2=9
Problem seemed easy enough but I can't see to solve for x and when I isolate an equation on one side I end up getting huge numbers that are unworkable
Thanks for the help

Question 156836: I need to resolve x, AB, BC and AC, where A, B and C are points on a line. A is leftmost, C is rightmost, and B is somewhere in between.
AB = 2x+1
BC = x-2
AC = sqrt (x^2 + 25x + 5)
Was able to write, 2x+1+x-2 = sqrt (x^2+25x+5), which reduces to 3x-1 = sqrt (x^2 + 25x + 5).
I don't know how to eliminate the square root, especially when there is an exponential along with it.
Please help.
Thank you.
