Here's how to solve this equation:
4 - <span>√2x-5 = 1
</span><span>√2x-5 = 4-1
</span><span>√2x-5 = 3 (now we have to square both sides to get rid of the root)
</span><span>√2x-5=3 / ^2
</span>(<span>√2x-5)^2 = 3^2
2x-5 = 9
2x = 9+5
2x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7
The correct answer is 7. </span>
The sum of their ages is 71+68=149
They are actually 149 years old
