You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1. x%5E2%2B25=10x
x%5E2+-+10x+%2B+25+=+0
(x-5)(x-5) = 0
so x-5 = 0
--> x=5

2. 10h-2=11h%5E2
11h%5E2+-+10h+%2B+2+=+0

using quadratic formula, x+=+%2810++%2B-+sqrt%28%28-10%29%5E2+-+4%2A11%2A2%29%29%2F%282%2A11%29

x+=+%2810+%2B-+sqrt%28100+-+88%29%29%2F%2822%29
x+=+%2810+%2B-+sqrt%2812%29%29%2F%2822%29
x+=+%2810+%2B-+sqrt%284%2A3%29%29%2F%2822%29
x+=+%2810+%2B-+sqrt%284%29sqrt%283%29%29%2F%2822%29
x+=+%2810+%2B-+2sqrt%283%29%29%2F%2822%29

so x+=+%2810%2B2sqrt%283%29%29%2F%2822%29 OR x+=+%2810-2sqrt%283%29%29%2F%2822%29
so x+=+2%285%2Bsqrt%283%29%29%2F22 OR x+=+2%285-sqrt%283%29%29%2F22
so x+=+%285%2Bsqrt%283%29%29%2F11 OR x+=+%285-sqrt%283%29%29%2F11
