Solve:
SQRT(3X+5)= SQRT(5X-7)
Can anyone show me the steps the solve this? Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ignore the sqrt signs as the numbers under the radicals are equal thus --
3x+5=5x-7
3x-5x=-7-5
-2x=-12
x=-12/-2
x=6
proof
3*6+5=5*6-7
18+5=30-7
23=23
