Part A: Substitute/plug in each number into the equation to see which number will make the equation true.

x + 7 = 16      Plug in 5 into "x"

5 + 7 = 16

12 = 16    5 doesn't make the equation true because it equals 12 not 16

x + 7 = 16     Plug in 7 into "x"

7 + 7 = 16

14 = 16     7 doesn't make the equation true because it equals 14 not 16

x + 7 = 16     Plug in 9 into "x"

9 + 7 = 16

16 = 16             9 makes the equation true because it equals 16

Part B: Plug in 9 into "x" in the inequality to see if it still makes it true.

x + 7 < 16     [x plus 7 is less than 16]

9 + 7 < 16

16 < 16     [16 is less than 16]  The same number would not make the inequality true because 16 can't be less than itself.

To figure out which numbers satisfy the inequality, plug it into the inequality:

x + 7 < 16      Plug in 5 into "x"

5 + 7 < 16

12 < 16      5 does satisfy the inequality because 12 is less than 16

x + 7 < 16     Plug in 7 into "x"

14 < 16     7 does satisfy the inequality because 14 is less than 16

x + 7 < 16     Plug in 11 into "x"

11 + 7 < 16

18 < 16     11 doesn't satisfy the inequality because 18 isn't less than 16

Answer:

\sqrt{(n-m)(n+m)} & -\sqrt{(n-m)(n+m)}

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Subtract m^{2} from both sides. This should leave you with x^{2}=n^{2}-m^{2}.

2) Square root both sides. This should leave you with x=\sqrt{n^2-m^2} & x=-\sqrt{n^2-m^2}.

<em>You can stop here if this is what the problem is asking for. However, it is not fully simplified.</em>

<em />

3) Factor the equation. This should leave you with \sqrt{(n-m)(n+m)} & -\sqrt{(n-m)(n+m)}.
