sum of radical 50 and x radical 2 is 9 radical 2 find x
---
(sqrt(50)+x*sqrt(2)) = 9*sqrt(2)
---
5sqrt(2) + xsqrt(2) = 9sqrt2
----
Divide thru by sqrt(2)
----
5 + x = 9
x = 4

sqrt%2850%29+%2B+x%28sqrt%282%29%29+=+9sqrt%282%29

5sqrt%282%29+%2B+x%28sqrt%282%29%29+=+9sqrt%282%29

Divide both sides by sqrt%282%29

5+%2B+x+=+9

x+=+4
