Question

-5 = (x+7)^1/2 - 11 How do I solve this.

Answer 1

PEMDAS might help you out with this problem

If you dont know what "PEMDAS" means then it means Parentheses;Equation;Multiplication; Division; Addition; Subtraction


⬇Anyhow! lets solve this problem⬇ (if that's what you meant!

(-5)- (x+7)^1/2-11 =?
? = 0

(x) + 7 / 2 - 11 = ?

11(2) / 2

-5 - (x) + 15 / 2

-5 (2) / 2

it will become ➡ 5 - x / 2

5 - x / 2 (2)

5 - x = 0
- 5 - 5
---- -----
0 - 5
* -1 *-1
----- ----
-0. -5

This should become easier for you to understand it?


We have one solution in this problem

x = 5
