Question

Use the rules of equations and inverse operations to solve the equation. In your final answer, include all of your work.
25 - x^ 2 = -150

Answer 1

subtract 25 from both sides:-
-x^2 - -150-25
-x^2 = -175
Divide both sides by -1:-
x^2 = 175
x = +/- sqrt 175
x =  13,23 , -13.23    to nearest hundredth
