Question

If a number squared equals 49. Find the solution to x.

Answer 1

x= 7

Explanation:

Let the unknown number be x

`{x}^(2) = 49`

Square root both sides

`\sqrt{ {x}^(2) } = √(49)`

Simplify

`x = 7`

Answer 2

`\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 7}}}}}`

Explanation:

Let the number be 'x'

Create an equation

`\sf{ {x}^(2) = 49}`

Squaring on both sides

`\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {x}^(2) } = √(49) }}`

`\dashrightarrow {\sf{ \: x = 7}}`

Hope I helped!

Best regards!
