Question

Need Answer x² = 625

Answer 1

x = ± 5

Explanation:

Given

x² = 625

We require to find the number that when squared results in 625

To find this value take the square root of both sides

`√(x^2)` = ±
`√(625)` ← note plus or minus

x = ± 25

since 25 × 25 = 625 and - 5 × - 5 = 625

Answer 2

x1= -25

x2= 25

Explanation:

square root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
