If x² = 196, then we must do the inverse (square root) to find x. However, the square root of any positive number will always be ± (plus or minus).
That means you have to do:
√196 = x
x = <span>±14.
We can check this by doing:
14 </span>× 14 = 196
-14 × -14 = 196
Therefore the answer is B) -14, 14.
To simplify square root 27, find two numbers that equal 27. But also, one of the numbers should be a perfect square (such as 4, 9, 36...).
9*3=27. The square root of 9 is 3, which makes it a perfect square. So, the answer is A.
It should be 3,000
