Solve a square root equation

Teaching Transcript

🎙️

Let's find 'X' if the square root of 'X' is 7

First, we have a square root sign. The square root of 'X' means what number, when squared, would give us 'X'

We know that the square root of 'X' is 7, so we know that 7, squared, would give us 'X'

7 squared is 7 times 7, which is 49

So if the square root of 'X' is 7, then 'X' must be 49

This math skill teaches how to solve basic square root equations by finding a number that, when squared, equals the given value. The skilled process involves squaring the number given as the square root to find the original number 'X'.
