The solution would be x=0 because the statement is false.

I need to know so that I can help you out.
<span>To rewrite the expression as a multiple of a sum of two numbers with no common factor, we're supposed to find the greatest common factor between the terms and factor it out. </span>We can see that both 15 and 24 are divisible by 3. So let's factor the 3 out. Since the 3 goes into 15 five times and into 24 eight times, the expression can be rewritten like this.
15 + 24 = 3(5 + 8)
So, the negative would be divided out to make it 3, then square both sides to get rid of the square root and get 9, then subtract 15 and you get -6. <span />
