Your answer is wrong, put your answer back into the equation you'd not have squareroot of 8
NwaNimo1:
Square everything.......

then: x+x=8;

2x=8;

therefore x=4

sorry oh
how you take square am
whey x no carry ^2,make i mind my biznes sha.
but make i make some tinz clear
i multiply both side with the lcm
which will give you a perfect equation,
and you suppose know say square and square root na enemies them no dey agree.
so the two will eliminate themselves,i guess you go find a math t. To explain the concept better
Oga you don’t know maths
(√x + √x)^2
= (√x + √x) (√x + √x) ✅

But you did ❌
(√x + √x)^2
= x + x

Wrong!

Replace X with 4 and see if you're right🤣

You have to square both sides twice to completely remove the square roots

x2 + x = 64

2x2 = 64

2x = 8

x = 4

It is a Surd question.

Solution steps below
Rtx + Rtx=2Rtx (LHS)
Rt8 = Rt4 times Rt 2 (RHS)

Therefore 2Rtx=2Rt2 (because Rt4=2)
Divide both LHS and RHS by 2
Therefore Rtx= Rt2
Therefore x=2
Option a is the answer
N.B Rt= Square root

Re: Mathematicians In The House come over Here by Codes151(m):

4

Sq both sides.

X + x = 8
2x=8
X=8/2 = 4

You can check answer with your block Head.


If x =4
Root 4 + root 4 = ?
2 + 2 = 4
Therefore, is 4 not = to square root of 8?
Yes. Root 8 = 4.
So 4=4.

Update;:: my answer is wrong.
8 isn’t a perfect SQ.
Technically, I’d go for 2

Re: Mathematicians In The House come over Here by hitekk: 9:36am On May 25, 2024
Let's solve for x!

√x + √x = √8

Combine like terms:

2√x = √8

Divide both sides by 2:

√x = √8/2
√x = √4
√x = 2

Now, square both sides to get rid of the square root:

x = 2²
x = 4

So, the value of x is 4!

Because when you squared both sides you'd be left with

Re: Mathematicians In The House come over Here by Tonez007(m): 9:58am On May 25, 2024
The answer is 4.

To solve this equation, we can first square both sides to get rid of the square roots.

(√x + √x)^2 = (√ 8 )^2

Simplifying the left side, we get:

2x + 2√(x^ 2) = 8

2x + 2x = 8

4x = 8

x = 2

Now we need to check if this value of x works in the original equation.

√x + √x = √8

√2 + √2 = √8

2√2 = √8

Since both sides of the equation are equal when x = 2, we can conclude that this is the correct value of x.

Question like this , if say you matured you no for bring am come here.

Maybe na your assignment

4

Sq both sides.

X + x = 8
2x=8
X=8/2 = 4

If you come Dey talk thrash say answer no Dey, Dey use your head

You can check answer with your block Head.


If x =4
Root 4 + root 4 = ?
2 + 2 = 4
Therefore, is 4 not = to square root of 8?
Yes. Root 8 = 4.
So 4=4.

No Dey waste people data or time.
The square root of 8 is not 4. 8 is not a perfect square. If you substitute the value of 4 back into the equation, it gives us √4 + √4 = 2. So that automatically tells us that 4 is not the correct answer.
If you substitute 2 into the equation, it gives us √2 + √2 = 2√2.
When you convert 2√2 to a single surd, it gives us √8. √8 = √4 x √2 = 2√2. That tells us that √8 is equivalent to 2√2.
In conclusion, 2 is the correct answer.

X=2, because √x+√x=√8

2(√x)=√8

squaring both sides


4x=8

x=2

I like your method, it easiest I see so far, but one thing missing, answer is a, 2

_/2x +_/2x = _/8
2_/2x =_/8. Square both side
2(2x) = 8
4x = 8 divide both sides by 4
x = 8/4
x= 2
