Question 104104


*[Tex \LARGE (x+5)^2=3] Start with the given equation




*[Tex \LARGE x+5=\pm sqrt{3}] Take the square root of both sides




*[Tex \LARGE x=-5\pm sqrt{3}] Subtract 5 from both sides to isolate x.




-----------------------------------

Answer:


So our solution is:

*[Tex \LARGE x=-5\pm sqrt{3}]



This means our solution breaks down to:


*[Tex \LARGE x=-5+sqrt{3}]


or


*[Tex \LARGE x=-5-sqrt{3}]
