How do I solve this problem and check all the solutions?

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - = 5 ( subtract x from both sides )

- = 5 - x ( divide all terms by - 1 )

= x - 5 ( square both sides )

2x + 5 = (x - 5)²

2x + 5 = x² - 10x + 25 ( subtract 2x + 5 from both sides )

0 = x² - 12x + 20 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 2)(x - 10) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions

x = 2

2 - = 2 - = 2 - 3 = - 1 ≠ 5

Thus x = 2 is an extraneous solution

x = 10

10 - = 10 - = 10 - 5 = 5 = right side

Thus x = 10 is the solution
