Question

X² - 14 = 50 what is x?

Answer 1

x = 8

Explanation:

`x^(2)` - 14 = 50

You first need to add 14 to both sides:

`x^(2)` - 14 = 50

+ 14 + 14

_________

`x^(2)` = 64

To get rid of the square, you need to square root both sides:

`x^(2)` = 64

`√(x^2) = √(64)`

This gives you:

x = 8, as your final answer.
