Answer:

  x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find x such that ...

  x^2 +(x +1)^2 = 61

  2x^2 +2x -60 = 0 . . . . . simplify, subtract 61

  x^2 +x -30 = 0 . . . . . . . divide by 2

  (x +6)(x -5) = 0 . . . . . . . . factor; solutions will make the factors be zero.

The relevant solution is x = 5.

4x² = 32 What does x equal
babymother [125]

So here is what you would do:

lets just pretend that there is no x in the equation

so this is what the equation would look like:

first, is 4 to the power of 2=16 and now we are going to put the x back into the equation so: 4x to the power of 2, but we did the exponents so, now x is the missing number. We can use the 32 because it is the solution to the equation. So we would do 32-16=16 so the missing number is 16 so x=16

Answer: x=16
