Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

[tex]x=\sqrt{x+7} +5[/tex]

Step 1: Flip the equation.

[tex]\sqrt{x+7} +5=x[/tex]

Step 2: Add -5 to both sides.

[tex]\sqrt{x+7} +5-5=x-5[/tex]

Step 3: Solve Square Root.

[tex]\sqrt{x+7} =x-5[/tex]

[tex]{x+7} =(x-5)^2[/tex] (Square both sides)

[tex]x+7=x^2-10x+25[/tex]

[tex]-x^2+11x-18=0[/tex]

[tex](-x+2)(x-9)=0[/tex] (Factor left side of equation)

[tex]-x+2=0[/tex]   or  [tex]x-9=0[/tex] (Set factors equal to 0)

x = 2 or x = 9

x = 2 (Doesn't work on the original equation)

x = 9 (Works in the original equation)

Answer:

x = 9
