Answer:

12 and -12

Step-by-step explanation:

144 is a perfect square which means that a number multiplies to it with the same number. In this instance both 12 and -12 equal 144.

12 x 12 = 144

-12 x -12 = 144 (two negatives equal a positive)

Answer:

The square root function

sqrt(144) or √144 produces a single positive value, 12.  

However if you have an equation

x² = 144, then you have two possible values for x, 12 and -12.  

Two ways to look at it.  

x² - 144 = 0

Difference of two squares

(x+12)(x-12) = 0

x = -12, 12

x² = 144

x = ±√144

x = ±12

x = -12, 12

Start with

\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{3}{2}

Multiply the whole equation by 2. Since 2 is positive, we don't need to switch the inequality sign:

x+3

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x
