Solve for x:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%286-5x%29+=+x\"$ Square both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6-5x+=+x%5E2\"$ Rewrite this as:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2%2B5x-6+=+0\"$ Solve by factoring:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x-1%29%28x%2B6%29+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x-1+=+0\"$ or $\"x%2B6+=+0\"$ so...
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+1\"$ or $\"x+=-6\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
