Answer: [tex]x=12, -2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex](x-5)^{2}=49[/tex]
F.O.I.L the binomial
[tex]x^2-10x+25=49[/tex]
Set to 0
[tex]x^2-10x+25_{-49} =49_{-49}[/tex]
[tex]x^2-10x-24=0[/tex]
Factor the polynomial
[tex](x-12)(x+2)[/tex]
Set to 0 and Inverse operations
[tex](x-12)=0\\x=12[/tex]
Set to 0 and Inverse operations
[tex](x+2)=0\\x=-2[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]x=12, -2[/tex]
