sqrt(2x+5)=x-5

Solution

2 x + 5 = x - 5

Solution

x = 10

Solution steps

2 x + 5 = x - 5

Square both sides:

2 x + 5 = x^{2} - 10 x + 25

2 x + 5 = x^{2} - 10 x + 25

Solve

2 x + 5 = x^{2} - 10 x + 25 : x = 10, x = 2

x = 10, x = 2

Verify Solutions:

x = 10

True

, x = 2

False

The solution is

x = 10

Popular Examples

8 - 2 x = x

sqrt(7x+1)-sqrt(x-5)=6

7 x + 1 - x - 5 = 6

x^{1/2}=sqrt(x)

x^{\frac{1}{2}} = x

sqrt(x)+sqrt(x-20)=10

x + x - 20 = 10

x^{2} = x - 4
