Solve the following equation for x. [Do not report answers in decimal – leave them in radical form, and be sure to simplify radicals.
\n" ); document.write( ":\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2(x – 5)^2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 2 & use the latter half of the \"Complete the Square\" method:
\n" ); document.write( "(x- 5)^2 = (3/2)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the square root of both sides
\n" ); document.write( "x - 5 = +/-SqRt(3/2)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5 + SqRt(3/2)
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5 - SqRt(3/2)
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
