on edg.. good luck!!!

Answer 2

$\bf a^{\frac{ n}{ m}} \implies \sqrt[ m]{a^ n} \qquad \qquad \sqrt[ m]{a^ n}\implies a^{\frac{ n}{ m}}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ (x-5)^{\frac{1}{2}}+5=2\implies (x-5)^{\frac{1}{2}}=-3\implies \sqrt{x-5}=-3 \\\\\\ (\sqrt{x-5})^2=(-3)^2\implies x-5=9\implies x=14$
