Answer:

x = 1/2 , x = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation;

169x² - 42.25

Find:

Solution of equation using square root

Computation:

169x² - 42.25

We know that 13² = 169 and 6.5² = 42.25

So,

[13x]² - [6.5]²

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

So,

[13x]² - [6.5]² = [13x + 6.5][13x - 6.5]

So,

13x + 6.5 = 0 , 13x - 6.5 = 0

x = 6.5 / 13 , x = -6.5 / 13

x = 1/2 , x = -1/2
