Solve the following equation using the square root method. Round your answers to two decimal places. (x−16)2=15
If you are trying to say (x-16)2 = 15, then the sqare root method would just be to take the square root of both sides:
x-16 = sqrt(15), which is about 3.87.
Then, you would just add 16 to both sides:
x = 3.87+16, which would give you an answer of x = 19.87.
