Given the equation 2 Square root (x minus 5) = 2, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.

2 root (x-5)=2

Divide each side by 2 (in order to isolate the square root):
Root (x-5) =1

Square both sides to remove the radical sign:
(x-5)=1

Solve:
x=6

To be sure that it is not an extraneous solution, check the solution by replacing the value for the variable in the equation.

2 root (6-5) = 2

The square root of 1 is 1.

2(1)=2
This is correct.

Make R the subject<br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7BP%3D10%28Q-3R%29%7D%7BR%7D" id="TexFormula1" title=" \frac

I must assume that you meant the following:

10(Q-3R)

P = ----------------

R

Multiplying both sides by R, we get PR = 10R(Q-3R), or PR = 10RQ - 30R^2.

Rearranging these terms so that powers of R are in descending order:

30R^2 - 10RQ + PR = 0

Factoring out R, we get

R(30R - 10Q + P) = 0. This has two solutions:

R = 0, and 10Q - P

30R = 10Q - P, so that R = --------------

How many more miles is it to travel to Jakarta then to London
Tcecarenko [31]
It all depends where you start from, and what route you take.

For me, if I take the shortest possible route, then it's 3,956 miles to London
and 9,809 miles to Jakarta.  So for me, Jakarta is 5,853 miles farther.

But if you're starting from, say, Singapore, then London is 6,192 miles
farther away than Jakarta.
