Squareroot c Squareroot c 5 1 Find CSolutionsqrt c sqrtc
Squareroot c + Squareroot c - 5 = 1 Find C?
Solution
sqrt c + sqrt(c-5)=1
squaring both sides
(sqrt c + sqrt(c-5))2=1
c + c-5 + 2sqrt(c(c-5))=1
sqrt(c(c-5))= 3-c
squaring both sides
c(c-5)= 9+c2-6c
c2-5c=9+c2-6c
c=9
If we plug c=9 in original equation we get
sqrt 9 + sqrt(9-5)=3 +2=5 which is not equal toright side.
In this case there is no solution
