Solve the Square Root Equation: √x = 15

Question

$\sqrt{x}=15$

00:00 Find X

00:03 Square both sides to isolate X

00:10 Square and root cancel each other out

00:15 Break down the exponent into multiplication, and calculate

00:21 And this is the solution to the problem

To solve the given problem, we will follow these steps:

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: We are given $\sqrt{x} = 15$ .
To eliminate the square root, square both sides of the equation:

(\sqrt{x})^2 = 15^2

Step 2: Simplify both sides:
On the left, $(\sqrt{x})^2 = x$ .
On the right, $15^2 = 225$ .

This gives us the equation:

x = 225

Thus, the solution to the problem is $\boxed{225}$ .
