Solve (x - 5)2 = 3.O A. x = -51 1/3O B. x = 3 15O C. x = 5+:13O D. x = 8 and x = -2

Answer :

In order to solve the given expression follow these steps:

1. Take the square roots on both sides in order to get rid of the power on the left side:

√(x-5)² = ±√3

x - 5 = ±√3

2. add 5 on both sides:

x-5 + 5 = 5 ±√3

x = 5 ±√3

Then, the solution is x = 5 ±√3
