Got It? 5. a. What is the solution of 6 - V2x = 10?
b. Reasoning How can you determine that the equation V x = -5
does not have a solution without going through all the steps of
solving the equation?

Solve each radical equation. Check your solution. If
there is no solution, write no solution.


  1. V3x + 10 = 16

  2. V r + 5 = 2 V r - 1

  3. V2x - 1 = x

  4. V x - 3 = Vx + 5

  1. Recreation You are making a tire swing for a playground. Ihe time t in
    seconds for the tire to make one swing is given by t = 2 where € is
    the length of the swing in feet. You want one swing to take 2.5 s. How many
    feet long should the swing be?

  2. Geom etry The length s of one edge of a cube is given by s = /where A
    represents the cube's surface area. Suppose a cube has an edge length of 9 cm.
    What is its surface area? Round to the nearest hundredth.


Solve each radical equation. Check your solution.


  1. V3x+ 1 = V 5x- 8 20. V2y = V9 - y

  2. V7v-4 = V5v+ 10 22. VsTTo = V6 - s

  3. Vn + 5 = V5n — 11 24. V3m + 1 = V7m — 9
