Given the equation:
x^2 = 64
Determine the solution of the equation.
Solution:
In order to determine the solution of the equation, we can simply take the square root of both sides of the equation, whereas we can perform by enclosing both sides with a radical sign, or by raising both sides of the equation by ½.
x^2 = 64
(x^2)^½ = (64)^½
x= 8
Final answer:
x = 8
