Question

Solve over the set of real numbers for the equation below x-2=√2x-1

Answer 1

The set of real numbers for the equation x – 2 = √(2x – 1) will be 5.

What is the solution of the equation?

The solution of the equation means the value of the unknown or variable.

The equation is given below.

x – 2 = √(2x – 1)

Square on both side, then we have

               (x – 2)² = 2x – 1

         x² – 4x + 4 = 2x – 1

         x² – 6x + 5 = 0

   x² – 5x – x + 5 = 0

x(x – 5) – 1(x – 5) = 0

       (x – 5)(x – 1) = 0

                         x = 1, 5

The set of real numbers for the equation x – 2 = √(2x – 1) will be 5.
