We can always do a prime factoring of it, and check
50 = 2*5*5
2*5²
a perfect square, so-called, is the resulting number of a squared value, well 50 is not the result of anything squared, is the result of 3 factors, in this case 2,5 and 5.
a perfect square will be something like say 64, or 144, because
64 = 8*8
8²
144 = 12*12
12²
Answer:
x=9,-1 and 
Explanation:
we have been given with the quadratic equation 
we compare the given quadratic equation with general quadratic equation
general quadratic is 
from given quadratic equation a=1,b= -8,c= -9
substituting these values in the formula for discriminant 

Now, to find the value of x
Formula is 
Now, substituting the values we will get

And rewritting the given equation by shifting 9 to right hand side of the given equation and taking minus inside the bracket so as to convert it in the form of

10book=30mins
divide 10
1book=3mins
time=(time to read 1 book) times (number of books)
time to read 1 book=3 mins
15 books
15 books=15 times 3mins
15books=45mins
45 mins
