What is the solution to the equation below? square root of x+5=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Radical Equation entered :

√x-5 = 8

STEP1:

Isolate the square root on the left hand side

Radical already isolated

√x-5 = 8

STEP2:

Eliminate the radical on the left hand side

Raise both sides to the second power

(√x-5)2 = (8)2

After squaring

x-5 = 64

STEP 3:

Solve the linear equation

Rearranged equation

x -69 = 0

Add 69 to both sides

x = 69

A possible solution is :

x = 69

STEP 4:

Check that the solution is correct

Original equation

√x-5 = 8

Plug in 69 for x

√(69)-5 = 8

Simplify

√64 = 8

Solution checks !!

Solution is:

x = 69

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.

42%

step-by-step explanation:

we know,

total people = 60

total males = 25

percentage of males

= 25/60 × 100

= 25/6 × 10

= 25/3 × 5

= 125 / 3

= 41.

rounding of = 42%

happy to

pls mark as brainliest
